Hi Joe,

CPTC has some supports in place that would fall under this category. I am still collecting info from some offices but so far can state:


*                    We have lists of community partners

*                    We had a taskforce in 2015 to look at housing issues and have previously worked with a community agency on a grant funded co-located housing specialist at CPTC

*                    We have an emergency grant program through our CPTC foundation that can be accessed for short-term support, to include rental

*                    We have a food pantry on campus as well as other free food offerings

*                    We are once again looking at options for collaboration with local agency for housing referral services that would be available at CPTC.

Have a great weekend.

JR

Colleagues: are any of you providing programs or services for homeless students? There is a new bill in the Legislature (Senate Bill 5903) that would - among other things - create a pilot program for two of our colleges to do so. Examples given in the bill are short-term housing, access to showers and laundry facilities, and discounted meals. I'm interested in knowing if we would be starting from scratch or if some of you are somewhat down this road already.

We need to produce a fiscal note (estimate of cost) by next Monday, so it would be great to hear back from you by then if you have anything to share. Thanks very much.
