'If they can get an education and have an opportunity to finish high school and go to a trade school or a college university, then they're given some options, and every child deserves to have a second chance.”
“This is humbling," said Jodi Lunt, the executive director of the Davis Education Foundation."These students are our most vulnerable.”
“If a young person can come to school and get a shower, if a young person can come to school and launder their clothing, have food essentials met to get their homework done, have a caring adult engage with them, they will stay in school," said Lunt. “We decided to make this systemic. We decided to create a force of equality, of allowing all students to have equitable access to the needs across the school district.
“It's so easy for teens to get discouraged and say, 'What's the use?'" said Gail Miller."'I can't make it, I don't have a support system, I don't have the things I need, my clothes are dirty, I'll be an outcast, I'm hungry, I don't have a place to sleep.'"
