We fulfill our mission by providing technical assistance and sharing best-practice implementation strategies to build the capacity of individuals, agencies, and organizations to ensure the academic success of children. As such, we support state and federal administrators, homeless liaisons, educators, community service providers, advocates, parents and youth. In addition, we collaborate with partners to advocate for public policy change to ensure all children and youth succeed in school. Our members serve the approximately 1.5 million children and youth experiencing homelessness.
