Why it matters
A parent newsletter should make practical support easy to find without making families search through a full district navigation tree.
What happened
The district maintains a basic-needs resource page under Student Wellness with organizations, contact links, and service descriptions.
The details
- The page lists Community Action Council for housing and essential needs, supportive housing, employment, energy assistance and weatherization.
- Community Lifeline is listed for meals, emergency shelter for singles, showers, homeless case management, recovery cafe and support groups.
- St. Vincent de Paul is listed with a phone number for utilities and emergent one-time needs.
- Love Inc. is listed for diapers, clothing, household items, school supplies, hygiene and holiday assistance.
- DSHS is listed for general assistance, food, cash, case management and more.
What's next
