HALO Program

Normal campus HALO students took a trip recently using Connect Transit. We appreciate how this incredible resource helps so many adults get where they need to go independently in Bloomington/Normal and beyond!

HALO students at Heartland Community College Pontiac volunteered at Evenglow Senior Living. They enjoyed spending time with the residents and making a fun fall craft together.

HALO Transition class heard about the Career Center at Heartland Community College. They offer incredible services for students preparing for the job hunt.

Looking for something to do? HALO students in Community Awareness researched an activity or event nearby and presented to the class. They found some great activities!

Last week, HALO students stopped by to get free coffee drinks, teas and cocoa from the Student Access and Accommodation Services team at their Brewed for Success table.

HALO 2-Year students from both Normal and Pontiac campuses explored the Wellness Fair at Heartland Community College yesterday. They talked with many community agencies about the services that exist to support overall health--and snagged a lot of cool swag.

Normal 2-Year students in the HALO Program enjoyed lunch at Jimmy John's recently. Thank you to the amazing staff in Uptown Normal who helped our students order while sticking to a budget.
