Getting to the Core - S3.E6 - Homeless Education, McKinney-Vento and Special Populations

  • Summary

  • As we recognize National Homeless Awareness Week this month, we will be providing some information about the Special Populations Team at Wayne RESA, the McKinney-Vento Law, Homeless Awareness and why raising awareness on this subject is so important. We will be discussing what some common signs of homelessness are, the barriers that students experiencing homelessness face, how districts and PSAs can support their McKinney-Vento eligible students, and who you can contact should you have questions within your district and the county. Joining us are Wayne RESA Special Populations Team members; Dr. Sharrece Farris, Manager of State and Federal Programs, Charter Authorizations and Special Populations, Sabrina Rudy, Special Populations Consultant and Mary Bamrick, Administrative Assistant.
