CISBF was incredibly fortunate to receive a Homeless Student Stability Program grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce Office of Homeless Youth last January. Since that time, we have been able to provide low-barrier assistance to over 60 families in our bi-county region. This support has prevented evictions, covered emergency shelter, and provided rapid rehousing and utility assistance. Lack of stable housing has a clear and direct impact on student engagement and achievement and we are so grateful for the the HSSP grant that has allowed us to address this essential need in a compassionate, student-centered way.
