A New Chapter for Folsom Students: You’re Invited!

We are thrilled to announce the official Groundbreaking Ceremony for the HART Community Student Village.

For many Folsom Lake College students, the path to an education is hindered by housing instability. This Friday, we take a massive leap toward changing that reality. Join us as we break ground on a dedicated space designed to provide stability, support, and a place to call home for our local students.

“The groundbreaking represents an exciting step forward for our community. The student village will benefit unhoused Folsom Lake College students, and we’re excited to be opening the doors for Fall semester students.” — Liz Ekenstedt, Board President, HART of Folsom

Why This Matters

The Community Student Village isn't just a construction project; it’s a mission to ensure that no student has to choose between their education and a safe place to sleep.

By providing transitional housing and resources, we are helping Folsom Lake College students move toward self-sufficiency and lasting independence. We expect to welcome our first residents in time for the Fall semester!

Join Us

Members of the community, local leaders, and media are all invited to witness this milestone. There will be opportunities for photos and interviews with the project partners following the ceremony.
