Hands-on Interactive Session: Using Title I Set Aside Funds for Homeless Children & Youth
The North Carolina Homeless Education (NCHEP) Program is purposed to ensure children and youth experiencing homelessness have access to the public education under the Federal McKinney-Vento Act. NCHEP oversees programmatic aspects of homeless education across the state under Federal Program Monitoring and Support Division with NCDPI. NCHEP works to ensure that North Carolina's state policies are in compliance with federal law, providing technical assistance to homeless liaisons, and giving information and awareness materials to educators and community members in the state. As it relates to relevance, Title I, Part A of the ESEA (20 U.S.C. ยง 6301 et seq.) is to provide all children with a fair, equitable, and high-quality education, to close educational achievement gaps. This presentation will provide best practices to identify and address the needs of students experiencing homelessness as it relates to both the McKinney- Vento Act and Title I, Part A programs.
This talk was presented at:
