Purpose

  • The Office of Students in Transition provides assistance, support, and advocacy for children and youth experiencing homelessness and transitional living situations.  This program operates under the mandates and guidance of federal law, McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, and is designed to eliminate barriers to education for students who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence.
