Understanding the Links Between Youth Homelessness and Educational Disconnection
Educational inequities are well‐documented and highly correlated with youth homelessness and educational disconnection. The aim of this paper was to document empirical associations among threats to the well‐being of young people, discuss key educational policies and programs designed to address student homelessness, and describe the US adaptation of an international school‐based prevention program, the Upstream Project, a multi‐tiered prevention …
Parent, Staff, and Stakeholder Perspectives on Implementation of a Housing Support Initiative in a Head Start Program
This study used a qualitative research design to investigate the key components, infrastructure, processes, and facilitators involved in the implementation of Pathways Home Early Childhood , a housing support pilot program implemented within a Head Start grantee for families facing homelessness, as well as how participating parents experienced the program. We held parent interviews, a staff focus group, and stakeholder interviews with a total of …
Supporting Out‐of‐School Time Staff in Low Resource Communities
Highlights In low resource communities, afterschool programs provide academic support, enrichment, and safety. Out‐of‐school time (OST)programs struggle to meet aims due to low resources, low structure, and limited PD and support. We varied support (business as usual, performance feedback, coaching) and measured fidelity. Implementation fidelity was associated with level of staff support and site contextual factors. Targeted investment in OST sta…
Prevalence and Correlates of Youth Homelessness in the United States
PURPOSE: Unaccompanied youth homelessness is a serious concern. Response, however, has been constrained by the absence of credible data on the size and characteristics of the population and reliable means to track youth homelessness over time. We sought to address these gaps. METHODS: Using a nationally representative phone-based survey (N = 26,161), we solicited household and individual reports on different types of youth homelessness. We collec…
Housing and Child Well Being
Highlights Inadequate housing and homelessness threaten family stability and child development. A growing body of research links inadequate housing and homelessness with the child welfare system. At‐risk youth and families interact with various service systems, which are rarely coordinated. These 13 papers inform coordinated responses to inadequate housing in the child welfare system
Screening for Housing Instability and Homelessness Among Families Undergoing Child Maltreatment Investigation
Highlights Mixed methods, population survey of housing instability and homelessness. Three‐question screening tool intended to identify housing instability and homelessness. Housing problems and homelessness were associated with outcome of child welfare investigations
Housing and Child Welfare
Highlights A review of housing interventions reveals systemic constraints for scale‐up in child welfare. Current practices that target highest risk families may diminish effectiveness and increase demand. Scale‐up provides opportunities to better coordinate housing services with the child welfare system
I am part of every decision’
The majority of children in the child welfare system enter because of neglect and come from poor families with high rent burden, substandard housing and risk for homelessness. In this paper, we describe a model programme for families with dual vulnerability in housing and child welfare. Clients presented with a variety of parenting, substance use and/or mental health issues. The Supportive Housing for Families (SHF) programme prioritizes prompt f…
