Support Programs Address Homeless Student Needs Nationwide

Various school districts and organizations across the United States are actively addressing the needs of homeless and underprivileged students to ensure their academic success. Johnson & Johnson MedTech employees assembled hygiene kits for Project Hope Alliance, benefiting homeless children in Orange County. Similarly, the Alliance for Education in Seattle supports students through the Right Now Needs Fund, providing essentials like food and healthcare. In Springfield, the school district has enhanced ESL programs to accommodate a surge in migrant students. However, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools missed out on federal McKinney-Vento funds due to a paperwork error but continues to support its 5,500 homeless students. Oklahoma City and Putnam City Schools are also aiding thousands of homeless students by providing necessary resources and transportation.
