Book excerpt: This publication summarizes issues relating to the education of homeless children and youth and reviews programs that are effective in the delivery of educational services to this population. The report is comprised of five sections. The first section, "Introduction," surveys factors contributing to homelessness and indicates the special needs of young people who are homeless. The second section, "Problems in Educating Homeless Children and Youth," examines the following situations: (1) legal barriers, including residency requirements and guardianship requirements; (2) financial constraints, including family-related financial problems and school-related financial problems; (3) institutional impediments, including lack of records, placement in inappropriate programs, lack of coordination, and educational performance problems; and (4) social and psychological concerns, including stress, social acceptance, and self-esteem. The third section, "Federal Legislation for the Homeless," describes provisions of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act for homeless education. The fourth section, "Programs that Work," describes transitional programs in Tacoma (Washington), Salt Lake City (Utah), and San Diego (California), and mainstreamed programs in Venice (California), and New York City.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Assistance Act, reauthorized in 2015 as Title IX, Part A of the Every Student Succeeds Act, provides for the delivery of services to remove barriers to the enrollment and retention of homeless children and youth in schools. Every school district or local education agency (LEA) is required to implement the McKinney-Vento Act, including appointing a local homeless liaison who is responsible for ensuring that homeless children and youth are identified, enrolled immediately in school and linked to services. School administrators, teachers and support personnel encounter children and youth experiencing homelessness every day and play a critical role in ensuring that these children and youth are identified and served. School personnel are often the ones who develop trusting relationships with students and families and can be the eyes and ears to identify vulnerable students and ensure that they are linked to services and support. This booklet will guide school personnel in ways to support homeless families, children and youth. Included are a summary of requirements of the McKinney-Vento Act, the role of the local liaison, general strategies for school personnel and strategies for specific role groups to help homeless students enroll in school, attend regularly and succeed academically. Also included are links to additional information and resources."--Overview.

Book excerpt: This publication details components of California's statewide plan for educating homeless children and youth. Revisions of the original plan were based on data derived from statewide surveys of school districts and shelters conducted in 1988, 1989, and 1990. The 1990 amendments to the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 focus more on what is happening or should be happening locally to ensure that homeless children are able to attend and remain in school. A particular concern is the lack of awareness that prevents homeless children from receiving the same educational opportunities as their peers. Following the preface, the introduction describes the basis and purpose of The State Plan for Educating Homeless Children and Youth. The next five sections present information and recommendations for state- and local-level responsibilities. Information is presented on developing and implementing the plan; resolving disputes about placement; eliminating barriers to educating homeless children and youth; providing equal access to educational programs and services; and promoting, implementing, and monitoring the plan. Appendices contain the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act, a legal advisory on applying residency requirements to homeless children, and lists of advisory committee members for 1988-89 and 1990-91. (LMI)

Book excerpt: The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act was enacted in 1987 as the first federal legislation intended to comprehensively combat homelessness.

This book focuses on (1) "Issues of Homelessness and Education: Causes, Consequences and Definitions"; (2) "State, Local and Federal Responsibilities Regarding Access to Education: Removing Barriers to Enrollment, Attendance and Success"; (3) "School Responsibilities and Implementation Strategies" (stability and school selection, discrimination and segregation, and identification of and outreach to families and youth experiencing homelessness); (4) "Supporting Academic Achievement: Title I, Part A Requirements"; and (5) "You Are Not Alone!

This book was released on 2007 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The California Research Bureau (CRB), in participation with the California Council on Youth Relations (CCYR), and with support from The California Wellness Foundation, has been conducting a major research and policy initiative to bring attention to the issues facing homeless youth in California. These include lack of shelter and educational opportunities, health and mental health needs, and problematic interaction with law enforcement agencies and the courts. This report represents one of the research components of this project. Homelessness places youth at extreme risk of victimization and violence. Youth living in public places are often victims of physical and sexual assaults and robberies. Some youth are forced to engage in "survival sex" in exchange for shelter, food, or money. Crowded living situations and exposure to the elements lead to higher rates of illness, and the mental and emotional stress of homelessness leads to increased risks of substance abuse, depression, and even suicide. Given this context, school can be an oasis for homeless youth, where they can find security and support and obtain the skills they need to survive safely on their own. Yet, three-fourths of California homeless youth surveyed by the CRB were not in school. Most of the 54 youth surveyed were between 17 and 24, yet very few (six) had graduated from high school or attained a GED. This data is consistent with national surveys of homeless youth on their own. At the same time, a majority of California youth surveyed expressed the desire to return to school and had life goals (such as becoming a teacher or social worker or working in the medical field) that require extensive education to achieve. This report discusses seven key issues related to challenges homeless youth face in achieving their educational goals. It also presents policy options that address these challenges. A list of resources is included. Appended are: (1) Education Contacts for Homeless Children and Youth; and (2)Education Funding for Homeless Children and Youth. (Contains 112 endnotes.).
