About
Aggie House is the first-of-its-kind student-led transitional housing shelter. At Aggie House, we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for our residents and student volunteers. We rely on student volunteers to help operate and maintain our shelter. Our goal is to use a peer-run model to inspire and empower shelter volunteers to become leaders in social justice.
