Special Populations
Special Populations support services are designed to help single parents, economically disadvantaged students, students preparing to work in a nontraditional career field, financially at-risk students, displaced homemakers, homeless students, students with disabilities, dependents of active duty military parents, students who are in or have aged out of foster care, and individuals with limited English proficiency overcome existing barriers to education.
For additional information, contact the Office of Special Populations at 912.443.5717 or specpops@savannahtech.edu. Upon eligibility verification for services, a student may be able to receive assistance to include but not limited to:
- Short term counseling or coaching

Special Populations information is collected when students complete the Special Populations Self-Disclosure form. Any enrolled student interested in requesting information about resources may contact the Coordinator of Special Populations at any time.
Center for Working Families
Savannah Technical College became a Center for Working Families partner in 2010. STC’s Office of Student Support Services works with many community partners in our four county area and has access to multiple resources for our students through these CWF partnerships. STC offers SNAP (Food Stamp) screening and assessment for other benefits as a function of our Center for Working Families so students can be informed of all the benefits they are eligible for.
