Dear Students,

In times like these, words may not always capture the depth of care and support we hold for each of you. Recent events and policies have had a profound impact on many in our community, and we want to take a moment to reaffirm something important: You are not alone, and you are deeply valued here at Irvine Valley College (IVC).

Your well-being and success are at the heart of everything we do. Each of you contributes to the richness of our campus, bringing diverse perspectives, experiences, and strengths that make IVC a truly special place. No matter your background, identity, or circumstances, you belong here.

We understand that uncertainty can be challenging, and we want you to know that our commitment to providing a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment remains unwavering. Respect, openness, and belonging are the cornerstones of our community, and we will continue working to ensure that every student feels valued and supported.

If you or someone you know needs support, we encourage you to take advantage of our campus resources:

  • IVC Health and Wellness Center: 949-451-5221 or visit their website for more information.
  • Counseling Center: Offering guidance and support to help you navigate challenges and plan for your future.

At IVC, we honor the unique journeys of every student. Whether you're working toward a goal, exploring new opportunities, or facing uncertainty, we are here for you. With resources, encouragement, and a community that cares, you have everything you need to grow, learn, and thrive.

Thank you for being an essential part of our IVC family. Together, we will continue to build a campus where everyone feels safe, supported, and empowered.

With care and encouragement,

John C. Hernandez, Ph.D.
