We believe that students’ life outcomes, including their success in school, are closely aligned with their housing conditions and financial situation. College students are disproportionately at risk to experience housing and/or financial insecurity. This insight is our motivation for not only providing safe residences for students, but also give support in the form of scholarships. So far, we and our corporate partner have issued 26 scholarships at $3,000 per recipient for a total value of $78,000. And we’re not done yet.

Factors such as the COVID-19 Pandemic, crime, financial insecurity, and social injustice are negatively impacting the mental health and physical wellness of college students. Student Housing of America produces informational videos for our student residents and partner HBCUs and hosts seminars at our student housing locations focused on mental and emotional health, financial acumen, security awareness, and physical well-being.
