Wow! We are incredibly thankful to our friends at Desert Financial for this generous donation in support of resident services! This gift will benefit youth-oriented afterschool programming at NAC affordable housing communities and other resident services available at Native American Connections.

This gift was presented to NAC's donation and funding department by members of the Desert Financial team, who happened to be providing volunteer services at NAC's HomeBase! Thank you for your hard work in the kitchen alongside this amazing donation! Thank you to our generous grant funders! Your support will greatly benefit our clients, residents, and community.

 

NAC’s services for Resident Children provide safe, healthy activities afterschool and during the summer months for more than 400 school-age children in seven Affordable Housing sites.

A "chronically homeless" individual is defined to mean a homeless individual with a disability who lives either in a place not meant for human habitation, a safe haven, or in an emergency shelter or in an institutional care facility if the individual has been living in the facility for fewer than ninety (90) days and had been living in a place not meant for human habitation, a safe haven or in an emergency shelter immediately before entering the institutional care facility. In order to meet the ‘‘chronically homeless’’ definition, the individual also must have been living as described above continuously for at least twelve (12) months or on at least four (4) separate occasions in the last three (3) years, where the combined occasions total a length of time of at least twelve (12) months. Each period separating the occasions must include at least seven (7) nights of living in a situation other than a place not meant for human habitation, in an emergency shelter or in a safe haven.

Federal nondiscrimination laws define a person with a disability to include any (1) individual with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities; (2) individual with a record of such impairment; or (3) individual who is regarded as having such an impairment. In general, a physical or mental impairment includes, but is not limited to, examples of conditions such as orthopedic, visual, speech and hearing impairments, cerebral palsy, autism, epilepsy, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), developmental disabilities, mental illness, drug addiction, and alcoholism.
