Juntos Club
About
The Juntos Club at SCC is a club for Latinx and Hispanic students to support each other, their families, school, and community. The club’s name is Spanish for “Together”.
The Juntos Program was originally developed at North Carolina State University in 2007. The program’s goals are to:
- Provide students and their parents with resources, knowledge, and skills to prevent drop-out and ensure graduation
- Encourage families to work together to gain access to college
The program consists of four components: family engagement, Juntos 4-H Clubs, monthly one-on-one success coaching, and summer programing—all created to increase family engagement, sense of belonging, student success, and higher education enrollment numbers among Latino youth. The NC program is currently serving eight counties (Wake, Catawba, New Hanover, Greene, Sampson, Bladen, Orange, and Lee) and has assisted over 10,000 students and families during the past fifteen years.
The Juntos Club at SCC offers various campus activities, including Family Nights, where students share their talents and celebrate their heritage.

Book Club: Vikings Read
About
The mission of the Vikings Read Book Club is to unite fellow book lovers in discussion over literature! Located in the Learning Resource Center, or campus library, students meet once to twice a month to select a book. They’ll be tasked with reading the text on their own until they reconvene for their next meeting, where the group will discuss what they’ve read! Each month a new book is selected. A few of the novels read so far: The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Secret, Fairytale, No Longer Human, I’m Glad My Mom Died, Lovecraft Country, & more! Join us and suggest what our next read should be!
