俄克拉荷马州穆尔市非营利机构建成 20 套公寓村:为无家可归高中生提供住所、上学交通与毕业规划支持

非营利机构 Bridges 在俄克拉荷马州穆尔市建成一处 20 套公寓的联排住宅村,专门收住无家可归的高中学生,近日举行开放剪彩,此前已有学生先行入住。
每套公寓设有卧室、客厅与厨房,项目同时提供上学交通接送与毕业规划支持。
Bridges of Oklahoma 执行主任斯泰西·布鲁斯介绍了该项目为学生提供稳定住所的做法。
该项目参照诺曼市的 Bridges of Norman 模式,后者曾帮助少年时期住在车里的杰夫特·洛萨诺完成学业,他如今在俄克拉荷马州前三名建筑公司之一工作。
穆尔公立学校总监罗伯特·罗明斯出席开放活动,并谈到首位入住的学生。
Oklahoma Nonprofit Opens a 20-Apartment Village in Moore for Homeless High School Students, With School Transport and Graduation Planning
The nonprofit Bridges has opened a 20-apartment duplex village in Moore, Oklahoma, built specifically to house homeless high school students; a ribbon-cutting was held this week, with some students having already moved in earlier.
Each apartment has bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen, and the programme provides transportation to school along with graduation planning support.
Stacy Bruce, executive director of Bridges of Oklahoma, described how the project gives students a stable place to live.
The village is modelled on Bridges of Norman, which helped Jefte Lozano, who lived in his car as a teenager, finish school; he now works for one of Oklahoma's top three architecture firms.
Moore Public Schools Superintendent Robert Romines attended the opening and spoke about the first resident.
