HOMELESSNESS: McKINNEY VENTO FEDERAL LAW

 

The McKinney-Vento Law provide rights for families who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence.

 

  • Do you live on the streets, in a car, van, tent, or other place that is not a permanent structure?
  • Do you live in a shelter, motel, hotel, or other transitional housing program?
  • Are you a youth who is not living with your parents or legal guardians?

 

Please talk to your child’s School Counselor to see if you qualify for additional support.
