We have a writing center and the writing centers support students and faculty alike in the writing process.
So students can go to the writing center with an initial idea and get help fleshing that idea out.
They can bring an assignment and say, I don't know how to start this.
I don't know where to begin.
They can bring a draft of a paper and get some feedback and help and direction, but you can go to the writing center in any part of your process and get support for what you're working on.

If you have supports in place in high school, you should continue those because they can be useful in your college career as well.
