If you are new to meeting the educational needs of students who are experiencing homelessness or students who are in foster care, these TWO SEPARATE 101 SESSIONS will provide interactive workshops that will cover the essentials that will help you be successful in supporting these two populations.

The 101 Homeless & Foster Workshops cover information for these two populations in TWO SEPARATE SESSIONS. Both parts are essential for a complete understanding of how to support students who are experiencing homelessness or students who are in Foster Care. 

Session #1 - HOMELESS EDUCATION – 9:00 am - 11:30 am  

Session #2 - FOSTER YOUTH – 1:00 pm – 3:30 pm

We encourage you to set aside time to attend both sessions.    

Both sessions will include information on identification, laws, and policies and best practices will be highlighted; participants will be able to immediately apply the information as they work through real case scenarios.

School and district level staff who would benefit most from these workshops are homeless and foster youth liaisons, front office personnel, principals, assistant principals, dean of students, counselors and new site and district administrators. 

This event is specifically designed for NEW Homeless and Foster Youth Liaisons.
