Tours of the DBC building, where many of the HHS classes are held, will be offered, and instructors will be present to share information about the Gaston College HHS programs and career opportunities in the field. Community members should plan to attend the Open House to explore the many career options available to them. Gaston College's programs prepare students to be employer-ready and ready to transfer to a four-year degree program. The purpose of the Gaston College Health and Human Services Division is to promote health, wellness, and human services programs, to provide quality instruction, and to produce graduates who will perform professionally in the community.
