HEART (Homeless Education and Resource Team) Program
The Spokane Valley HEART Consortia is a collaborative program of the Central Valley, East Valley and West Valley School Districts. The Consortia is in place to address and support the educational needs of students who find themselves in temporary or transitional housing during the school year. The Consortia works closely with the Spokane Valley Partners (10814 East Broadway - 927-1153), area shelter and housing providers, the Spokane Homeless Coalition, and the City and County of Spokane. We work together to assure students, and their families, in temporary or transitional housing situations feel supported and encouraged while they secure permanent housing.
The Consortia also works in collaboration with area school districts, including Spokane Public Schools, Mead, Freeman, Cheney, Deer Park, Medical Lake, Riverside, Coeur d'Alene Schools, etc, in an effort to create a county-wide network to support students in transitional and temporary housing situations.
