Gentrification, housing insecurity, and homelessness are three major issues affecting many of the people that live in the San Francisco Bay Area. With Silicon Valley’s tech companies driving up housing prices, it is more important than ever for students to understand the struggles of our surrounding communities and advocate for their needs. Specific issues/topics/groups this department works with include:

Sarah KleinDepartment Coordinator | sklein@scu.edu
She/Her/Hers Hi! I am a senior from Dallas, TX and I'm so happy to be working for SCCAP on issues I am passionate about. I like squirrel watching, sunset skates, ramen, skiing, and 90's rap. I'm excited to get SCCAP up and running again after everything shut down because of COVID! This year is a great opportunity for us to improve wherever we can.

setareh salkhiProgram Coordinator | ssalkhi@scu.edu
She/Her/Hers Hi! My name is Setareh (Seta, if that’s easier), and I am a sophomore here at SCU. I’m from the Bay Area (go Giants!), and I have two dogs I can’t be away from for more than a week. When I am on campus (and not napping), I love playing volleyball and going for a swim to take my mind off things. Feel free to say hi if you see me around! (Be warned: you will probably have to say it multiple times before I hear you.) I’ve always been passionate about helping those whose circumstances prevent them from living more fortunate lives. I am super grateful to SCCAP for giving me the opportunity to reach out and work with these communities, to learn from them, and to hopefully pass on this knowledge to my fellow Broncos.

I am a mechanical engineering major and I’m involved in a few things on campus like working as an Engineering Tour Guide, a peer advisor, am a STEAM chair within the business fraternity Alpha Kappa Psi.

She/Her/Hers Hiiii! I’m Luca, I’m a sophomore from Minneapolis Minnesota and I am majoring in communication and minoring in English. Most of the time you can find me doing yoga, exploring outdoors, obsessing over my cats, or in the SCCAP office!
