McKinney-Vento Education Program for Families Living in Transition

  • The term homeless children and youth means individuals who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence. It also includes school-age children who have a nighttime residence that is: a shelter, motel or hotel, transitional housing, trailer park, campground, makeshift arrangements in someone's home or a place not designed for human accommodations.
     
    Upon enrollment and each year thereafter, we ask families to complete a new Residency Survey in order to stay active in the Families in Transition program.  Parents need to complete only one Survey for their entire family.  Forms should be emailed to the Homeless Liaison for your school, returned to San Juan Central, Room 14 or faxed to (916) 979-8977.
