Our Mission

Housatonic Community College Writing Center Mission Statement

The Housatonic Community College Writing Center cultivates an environment that encourages participation in the educational process, guiding students on their journey to become better writers and students.

Our mission is to help students find their voices, achieve their goals, and to make our entire Housatonic community stronger.

Our tutors--made up of students, faculty, and staff--are trained to help students with writing assignments across all subject areas, including scholarship and transfer applications.

We work patiently with students in a nonjudgmental way to empower them and help them gain confidence as independent writers.

We offer a variety of services, such as one-on-one appointments, drop-in hours, special events, and writing resources.

Our services are free for any enrolled HCC student.
