Student Insurance
The District offers student insurance for students that are injured during school activities, this includes physical education classes, club sports, career, and technical education, and the commute between classes in addition to intercollegiate sports.

When a student suffers a non-life-threatening injury on campus, they can seek assistance
from the Student Health Services Department. However, depending on the type of vocational
or occupational program that a student is enrolled in, they may be covered by workers'
compensation laws and insurance. You can contact Risk Management (bj.cain@rccd.edu) for additional information regarding Workers' Compensation coverage.
