Students experiencing homelessness, the foster care system, and those impacted by the juvenile justice system are often the most vulnerable groups of students in any community. They are the students most likely to experience chronic absenteeism, have poor academic outcomes, and struggle with behavioral issues. Join program staff from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Elementary and Secondary Education as they explore the challenges for these students, discuss requirements of Federal programs, and highlight strategies for supporting these students and improving outcomes.
