NKY Forum: School Success Support for Teens Experiencing Homelessness
Tuesday, October 24, 2023
9:00 am - 10:30 am
Join the NKY Forum as we explore the problems, causes, and solutions behind teen homelessness in our region. Housing insecurity has consequences on a teen’s ability to study, to focus, and to succeed after graduation. Congress, recognizing the large scope of the problem, passed legislation in the McKinney-Vento Act that requires schools to identify housing insecurity in its students and provide resources to remove barriers for them in gaining an education.
The discussion will begin at 9 am on October 24, Tuesday. Attendance is both in-person at the Newport Branch of the Campbell County Public Library (901 East Sixth Street, Newport) or virtually via Zoom.
