Overcoming Homelessness Scholarship

Homelessness is a traumatic experience. The uncertainty of not knowing where to turn for shelter or where your next meal will come from can leave long-lasting scars that persist long after reaching a stable place. At The Law Office of Caroline Norman Frost, we empathize with those who have been touched by housing insecurity. We are pleased to offer the Overcoming Homelessness Scholarship, a $1,000 award to support students who have experienced homelessness or have made a demonstrated effort to combat it.
