City Garden recognizes that learning can't happen when students' basic needs aren't met. We are committed to providing wrap-around supports for students and families, to meet their holistic needs.
Our team provides counseling on site, connects families to other social services organizations, and coordinates direct support, such as rent assistance, utilities assistance, transportation, housing referrals, and free uniforms. We provide free or reduced price school meals to under-resourced families, as well as significantly discounted rates for preschool tuition, before care, and after care services.

Katherine is also the McKinney Vento Liaison and Foster Care Point of Contact.
