Overview

  • SUSD Homeless Program

    Are you currently experiencing temporary living arrangements due to eviction, job loss or a traumatic event?  Safford Unified School District offers some services to families through the federal McKinney Vento Homeless Assistance Act.  The Act offers children and families who are in a temporary living situation due to economic hardship certain services and supports which may include enrollment assistance, nutrition services, community referrals, and in some cases, school transportation.  If you are living in any of the following temporary circumstances: with another family or friend due to financial hardship, living in a shelter, transitional housing, in a hotel/motel, or an unaccompanied youth, you may fit the criteria for assistance under this act.  Please contact Lesley Huffenberger at 928-348-7025 lhuffenberger@saffordusd.com to inquire further about qualifying for this program.
