SFSU has recognized the housing crisis many people face in San Francisco, and recognizes that many of their students are affected. A December 2019 study found that 17.7% of SFSU students had faced homelessness in the past 9 months. Food+Shelter+Success provides several resources for students facing housing and financial crises. These resources include information about where to find free food on campus, economic resources provided by the school, temporary housing, shower access, care kits, mental health services, and information about renting resources and food banks outside of campus.
