Housing + High School = Success.
Schools and Communities Uniting to House Unaccompanied Youth
"Without [this program] I don't know where I would be, I may have dropped out or lost my way."
Graduate of Roadmap to Graduation
Adrian Public Schools/Catholic Charities host home program
NAEHCY is proud to highlight the success of seven McKinney-Vento liaisons who have inspired their schools and communities to provide housing to unaccompanied youth. Their innovative housing programs make creative use of minimal funding to give young people the safety and support they need to complete high school and continue into higher education. NAEHCY offers this publication for McKinney-Vento liaisons, youth service providers, Continuums of Care, youth task forces and advocates, community foundations, and others who want to help end youth homelessness in their communities by providing safe housing and school support.
The publication offers ten steps to consider for four different temporary housing models for unaccompanied youth: host homes; group homes; independent living; and emergency shelters. The steps are designed to give readers tools to create these programs in their communities. In addition, the links below provide sample youth applications, host home applications, powers of attorney, parental consent forms, confidentiality notices, job descriptions, posters, flyers, Power Point presentations, data collection tools, and other useful forms and documents.
