Homeless and Foster Youth Liaison and Community Resources

Loomis Union School District is a member of the Placer County Homeless Network.  The Network serves to coordinate resources and services for students who are identified as homeless.  By definition, homeless children are individuals who lack a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence.  This may include students who are residing in temporary shelters or transitional housing, hotels or motels, or are in a shared housing situation.
 
The following documents below are available to assist families experiencing homelessness:
 
  • Placer County Resources, provided by the Placer County Network of Care
  • McKinney Vento Student Needs Survey
In addition, Loomis Union School District collaborates with Placer County Office of Education and the Placer County Children's Systems of Care to assist students in finding appropriate Foster Homes, when needed.  At this time, there is an urgent need for committed families and adults in our community to step forward to provide temporary and permanent homes for children and youth of all ages.
 
For additional information regarding resources and services for homeless students, please contact the LUSD Homeless and Foster Youth Liaison.
