Basic Needs
Rainy River is committed to providing excellent educational opportunities to the communities it serves. We recognize basic needs — including things like food, housing and transportation — can have a direct impact on the wellbeing and success of our students.
We’re here to help and support you.
To assist our community in meeting these needs, we’ve compiled the resources below. The information will be revised when appropriate and evolve as necessary.
If you have additional questions, please contact Brad Krasaway at brad.krasaway@minnesotanorth.edu or 218-598-9308. Also, our Rainy River Advisors are available to meet with students who need assistance with basic needs issues.
