McKinney-Vento (Homeless)

 

If your family lives in any of the following situations:

1) In a shelter, motel, vehicle, or campground

2) On the street

3) In an abandoned building, trailer or other inadequate accommodations

4) Doubled up friends or relatives because you cannot find or afford housing

 

And, it is not considered:

1) Fixed

2) Adequate

3) Regular

 

Then your pre-school aged and school aged child(ren) may have certain rights or protections under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Assistance Act.

 

If you suspect you may qualify for McKinney-Vento Assistance contact your child's teacher or building principal for a copy of the Application.  If you have questions concerning this program, you can contact the McKinney-Vento Liaison, Michelle Etson at (810) 591-3431 or [email protected].
