    Supporting Homeless Students and the School System

    The Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 amended and reauthorized the federal Education for Homeless Children and Youth Program of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (“McKinney-Vento”). McKinney-Vento guarantees homeless children and youth equal access to free, appropriate public education and the right to educational continuity and stability. This course provides an overview of the educational rights of students impacted by homelessness and how Pupil Personnel Workers can address their educational needs. The course will examine the rules and regulations that are federally mandated as well as practical tips to assist the families.
