Webinar: Education and Homelessness Part 2
Funders Together to End Homelessness, in cosponsorhip with Grantmakers for Education, invites you to join a second funder webinar, Education and Homelessness - Working Together for Students Experiencing Homelessness Part 2, to hear how funders can support students experiencing homelessness.
Across the country, student homelessness is rising. Despite increasing numbers, these students – as well as the school liaisons and state coordinators who support them – report that student homelessness remains an invisible and extremely disruptive problem. Whether students experience homelessness with their families or alone, for a week or a year, the experience is extremely damaging to their ability to stay in school and on track.
In part 1, we covered how housing instability impacts student outcomes, how the education system is uniquely suited to address student homelessness, key policies and practices being implemented across the country, and examples of what funders and communities are doing across the country.
