TUSD Emergency Housing Program
Tucson Unified is rolling out a new program to help any of our district families who may be dealing with housing insecurity. If any TUSD family finds themselves in a position where their house is unavailable, they can now apply for Emergency Housing Support (EHS).
The EHS program can be used by TUSD families once per school year and it will provide a four-day/three-night stay at one of the five EHS hotel partners. Families may also receive gas cards and internet connection. Incidentals and/or additional stay will be the responsibility of the TUSD family.
For additional information or to engage, please reach out to TUSD School Safety Dispatch at 520-584-7676.
