No Place to Go: Homeless Youth and Libraries

Thursday, November 15, 2018

2:00-3:00 PM EST

There are nearly 40,000 identified homeless youth in Michigan public schools, from preschool to 12th grade, including over 5,000 students not living with a legal parent or guardian. Highlighting National Homeless Awareness Week, this webinar will detail the different categories of homelessness, how to recognize a family or child struggling with homelessness, and will identify local resources and ways libraries can connect families to assistance. This webinar will be recorded and link shared with registrants if you cannot attend in person.  

Presenter: Pam Kies-Lowe, State Coordinator for Homeless Education/Homeless Education Consultant; Michigan Department of Education Office of Educational Supports
