District Checklist: Taking Full Advantage of American Rescue Plan Funds to Identify & Support Students Experiencing Homelessness & Housing Instability

This actionable checklist, developed in partnership with SchoolHouse Connection, is designed to help district leaders take full advantage of new and existing federal resources to meet the significant needs—greatly exacerbated by the pandemic—of students experiencing homelessness and housing instability.

TThe resource includes:

• Ideas for better collaborating with your district’s homeless education liaison
• Tips for assessing current strategies in supporting this student population
• Planning tools to help you meet the specific needs of your students experiencing homelessness

Whether on your own or with district teams, board members or other stakeholders, we encourage you to use all of the Learning Recovery & Redesign Guidance tools to reflect on your decisions and work to date in order to increase the impact of your spending moving forward.
