Supporting Unhoused Students: A Blueprint for MA Schools

This blueprint helps schools and districts develop school-community partnerships to support youth experiencing homelessness and their families (McKinney-Vento support). It combines research-based best practices with lessons learned from homelessness programs nationwide and in Massachusetts. The four sections of the guide detail the process schools can undertake to design and implement a program, providing tools and templates to support this process along the way.

Featured examples:

  • Homeless Education Resource Network (HERN) - Boston

  • Family Led Stability Initiative (FLSI) - Boston

  • The Haven Project - Lynn
