Warrior Connection is a on-campus hub at White County High School that makes getting help simple. Students and families can access basics like food, hygiene items, and clothing; do laundry or a quick shower; and meet with a Family Advocate to make a plan for what’s next. It’s welcoming, private, and built to solve problems fast—so students can focus on learning and families can keep moving forward.
