Other GRCC Resources for Health Maintenance
Grand Rapids Community College offers a resource page to help students find free and low-cost alternatives to medical, dental, and vision resources. An example of this is the dental cleanings you can do through the school involving assistance from students in the dental program here at GRCC. For students, you are able to receive a discounted cleaning and 4 x-rays for a total cost of $20! GRCC also offers food distributions for students in need, along with other nearby organizations. Check out our page on food pantries to access more information. Physical health may also impact your mental health and vice versa.
