Please note that our daily office hours for 2020-21 are different from previous semesters'. In an effort to reduce the risks of exposure to and spread of COVID-19, some of our staff members are working remotely and all in-person meetings are strictly by appointment only.

Students and employees must complete a daily health screening prior to coming to campus. The health survey can be found in GoWMU. Log in and you will see the survey in a section titled "COVID-19 Information." Please do not bring a companion with you to your appointment unless required for safety, legal, or medical reasons.

Our office hours in Ellsworth Hall are Tuesday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. While there will be a staff member on the floor to provide support and services during those hours, the floor will not be open to those without an appointment. To schedule an appointment, please call (269) 387-4420 or contact our staff members directly. Use the Contact Us form to send us a general inquiry email. Please know that there may be a somewhat of a delay in responses, but you will hear from us.

Note that masks are required in indoor spaces and outdoor spaces where social distancing is not possible and you must wear a mask inside public spaces whenever you are not alone, per the WMU Facial Covering (Mask) Policy. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate the current public health situation. Keep up-to-date on the University's response to COVID-19 on the WMU's COVID-19 Response website.

Welcome from the director

On behalf of Western Michigan University College Assistance Migrant Program (WMU CAMP), I'd like to welcome you to the University and our program! We are excited to have you as a prospective student and know you will find a great place to thrive here. Our goal is to support you and your family as you transition into college and throughout your first year.

I know first-hand of the challenges you might encounter because I was once a migrant and first-generation college student who took the opportunity of attending college as part of CAMP. I did not go to and through college alone. I had a community of family, friends, teachers, mentors, and programs guiding me along the way. As such, we here at WMU CAMP are committed to your academic success.

Our CAMP team is here to advocate, support, and empower you through your journey. Please take advantage of our services! We are happy to chat with you or answer any questions to assist in your decision-making process. Also, be sure to browse our website and join our closed Facebook group once admitted to keep up with upcoming deadlines and information. I hope to have the honor of working with you in the near future!

Información sobre la identificación del Condado de Kalamazoo!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In late 2016, former County Commissioner Larry Provancher brought a proposal forward to institute a countywide identification card program. The Board of Commissioners approved the proposal to look at the possibility of having an ID program for Kalamazoo County in December 2016. Many community people and groups supported Kalamazoo County moving ahead with such a program. A task force was created in early 2017 to research the possibility of creating an ID program for the County, which was co-chaired by newly elected commissioners Tracy Hall and Ron Kendall. The task force created several subcommittees to look at the various aspects of an ID program and gathered information from throughout the United States to present to the Board of Commissioners.

On July 5, 2017, the Kalamazoo County Board of Commissioners approved the creation of the Kalamazoo County ID Program and it was agreed that it would fall under the Clerk/Register's Office. Early 2018 was planned for the start of the program to give time for preparation, staff, location, forms and many other things related to the ID program to be put in place.

A grant from the Kalamazoo Community Foundation was awarded to have additional monies for advertising the program and to provide a means to assist people without available funds to obtain an ID card.

Work continued by many members of the original task force in preparation for the beginning of the ID program, and we are now close to announcing the start of this venture. Please watch the news media and this webpage for more information as to when the ID program will begin.
PURPOSE
The Kalamazoo County ID is intended to recognize all Kalamazoo County residents and enable them to connect with public safety, civic, and community services.

Without a form of identification, a person is not recognized as a member of the community and not afforded the same opportunities as other community members. Having a form of credible identification enables people to become fully participating members of the community.
WHERE TO APPLY
When the ID program begins, it will be housed at the Kalamazoo County Administration Building, Room 101, 201 W. Kalamazoo Ave., Kalamazoo, MI 49007
HOW TO APPLY
To receive an ID card, you must be able to show proof of residence in Kalamazoo County and provide proof of identity.

Applicants must produce documents totaling 300 - 400 points following the ID program's point system to qualify for a County ID.
BENEFITS OF ID PROGRAM

Prove your identity to law enforcement.

Pick up prescriptions from the pharmacy.

Present additional identity credentials to the State.

Prove your identity when using credit cards.

Prove your identity for merchant transactions.

Present an additional identity credential to open financial accounts.

Cash checks at participating financial institutions.

Apply for your Kalamazoo County ID in early 2018!
