Securing Resources

To further gauge the sustainability of an emergency aid strategy, institutions should consider the following:

Have all funding sources available been considered and incorporated in some way?
Are the current sources of funding secured in the future plans and needs of the emergency aid strategy?
Are the right people in place?
Are all available government and community resources being explored?
Does the program offer students additional support and resources that will minimize the need for emergency aid resources in the future?
Does the team managing emergency aid receive the institutional insights needed to build and sustain the program?
Is the institution positioned to constantly learn from its emergency aid work to push that knowledge into future planning?

Explore this section for insight and resources on these crucial elements for sustaining success in delivering emergency aid to students in need.
