The college has worked to increase its social outreach by leading and collaborating on projects that directly address the needs of the local Hispanic community, such as food drives, hot meal distributions, free COVID-19 testing, vaccination clinics, DACA information sessions, consulates, and a wide array of community events and resource fairs.

This year, 麻豆女演员 Community College was also designated federally as a Hispanic Serving Institution and recognized in a Senate Resolution Oct. 8 sponsored by U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) celebrating the critical role the 569 HSIs across the country play in "educating and empowering the next generation of Hispanic leaders."
