Now more than ever, our local students need us.
2019 County Office of Education data indicates that there is 4,749 local youth currently experiencing homelessness or extreme hardships throughout Santa Cruz County. This number is likely to continue to climb due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
And through the COE Stuff the Bus Campaign, you can help.
