| Abstract: | Objective: This study explores student perceptions of their academics and mental health during their participation in the College-Focused Rapid Rehousing (CFRRH) program. Participants: Nineteen students at two universities in California from diverse backgrounds participated in the study. Methods: In-depth interviews were analyzed using a constructivist grounded theory approach. Results: Findings centered around three themes: (1) Students in CFRRH have backgrounds characterized by precarity; (2) Mental health recovery once stably housed is a complex process; and (3) Stable housing helps students focus on academics. Conclusions: The results provide insight into the types of nuanced experiences students face before and after they received assistance from CFRRH. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
