Housing

Rights of Families Experiencing Homelessness

The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act can help your student if you do not have a "fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence".  Examples include:

  • Staying with friends or family because you lost housing
  • Living in a shelter, including transitional programs
  • Staying in motels because you cannot get your own home
  • Living on the streets, in a car, can, tent, or other non-permanent structure

Contact your school social worker for help.

If you have recently became homeless and would like help finding a shelter, call Delaware County Homeless Outreach Team at 267-671-4357
