The LVJUSD, in 2019, reported a count of 137 at-risk children in our public schools. Of these, 83 lived in overcrowded housing; 32 in temporary shelters; 20 in hotels / motels; and, 2 were unsheltered. (Source: City of Livermore, livermorechamber.org)
How do we stay motivated about investing in tax-funded public education, without being assured that all our community's children, no matter what economic strata they belong to, are being provided an equal and fair chance to a good future – a future that is only made possible with a consistent roof over and an integrated family support system.
With visible income disparities, particularly during this pandemic, the only way to mitigate the gap between the haves and the have-nots in our city is by continuing to invest in the future of all our children and by ensuring that no single child is deprived of a stable way of life.
Livermore's Eden Downtown Housing, therefore, is a promise of hope for our community's less privileged children.
