Over the years, NAEHCY's annual awards have become an important mechanism by which
the homeless education community recognizes it members who have made outstanding contributions to the field and to serving and supporting children and youth experiencing homelessness. Award recipients are selected
through a screening and selection process overseen by a dedicated committee of
State Coordinators for Homeless Education and other experts in the field. Award winners are recognized
at a special ceremony held during the NAEHCY Annual Conference.
