Homeless and Foster Care Student Services
How is homelessness defined?
The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act defines homelessness as children and youth "who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence"
COVID-19 and Homelessness
It is increasingly important that school sites know when a family is experiencing homelessess so we can prioritize the family for support and protect student educational rights. Even when transportation is not needed due to distance learning it is important that families/students alert the school social worker if they are experiencing homelessness.
Resources for families and students experiencing housing instability are available.
