(click here to link to document)
This policy forum proceedings document begins with an introduction to the unique challenges that administrators face as they support implementation of services for children with disabilities who are homeless. Findings from a virtual forum are presented in the areas of policy and practice issues and recommendations for change. Forum participants’ recommendations focus on developing policies and practices for:
o expediting enrollment and provision of services; and
o coordinating programs and services.
The numerous appendices contain additional reference, contact, process and policy information and sample forms.
Please feel free to include the above short summary in any pertinent organization’s newsletter.
