SJSU SHA

The Student Homeless Alliance is a student-led organization advocating for unhoused and housing insecure students ig: sjsu_sha

[SJSU SHA @sjsu_sha]

SHAs work with #SJSU has led to 12 or more emergency bed pilot program, a rental assistance program, and a centralized location for SJSU Cares!

UPDATE: @SJSU and state leaders announced a slew of new measures to address student homelessness https://t.co/duy26scmoZ

“We don’t have much flexibility with the way we spend with the rising cost of living, especially in San Jose.” - @sjsu_sha

[SJSU SHA @sjsu_sha]

It’s a tragedy when the city’s solution to homelessness isn’t providing resources and accommodations but instead destroying what little property they have and further ostracizing them

[SJSU SHA @sjsu_sha]

With the increasing cost of housing, more and more students will be facing housing insecurity at one point in their college journey. More must be done to ensure that students are guaranteed the best possible chance at success and that starts with adequate shelter

Attention SJSU students, did you know that the SAMMY App has tiles that direct you to important on-campus resources such as SJSU Cares, Title IX, CAPS, and many more?

#SHA #SJSU #SJSUCares #StudentHomelessness

[SJSU SHA @sjsu_sha]

Very grateful for professors like @smlipton who clearly explain the existence of crucial resources readily available, and we are hoping for the day that all @SJSU professors are not only aware of these resources, but also share them to all students they interact with.

[Scott Myers-Lipton @smlipton]

I just started class today @SJSU, and I told my students that if they were ever homeless, please tell me ASAP, and I will connect them to @SJSUCares, which has an emergency bed program for students. After class, a student came up to me and said she had been homeless. @sjsu_sha

[SJSU SHA @sjsu_sha]

4,000 students without shelter is 4,000 students who cannot dedicate their all to their studies. Every student deserves proper shelter and security in order to truly flourish in their studies.

Any amount of deaths due to homelessness is unacceptable. No individual living in the wealthiest area of the wealthiest country in the world should lack access to adequate housing

“Students are unaware of just how big an issue homelessness is at the university, and even less are aware of SJSU Cares or the Bill Wilson Center, he said” Anthony Majano on a lack of awareness of resources leading to few students seeking out assistance

"Student Homeless Alliance President Anthony Majano called this a 'massive change'...The day before, @SJSUPrezPerez told students he would personally head the Basic Needs Advisory Committee". @sjsu_sha @SJSU @calstate @csustudents @siliconvalleycf @PACTSJ
