Resources for Student and Family Support
Families and individuals go through seasons of giving and seasons of receiving support. We know that when life happens, such as an unexpected loss of a family member, job, or home; mental or physical health concerns; or various other life events, it may be difficult or stressful for you to support your family. A large part of my job as a social worker is to try and connect students and families in a season of needing support to resources in the community such as families in transition, utility and/or rental assistance, medical and/or mental health referrals, food, clothing, prescriptions, holiday assistance, and more.
If you and your family are in a season of receiving and need assistance with any of these resources or need support with anything not mentioned, please do not hesitate to reach out by completing this family support form or calling me at 636-733-3131.
