The Education for Homeless Children and Youth program (EHCY)
provides formula grants to state educational agencies (SEAs) to
help ensure that all homeless children and youth have equal access
to the same free and appropriate public education, including public
preschool education that is provided to other children and youth.
It is the only federal education program exclusively focused on
homeless children and youth. This book provides an overview of the
purposes and program structure of EHCY; the history of the
program's funding; issues that have arisen regarding the
implementation of ESEA Title I-A set-asides for homeless students;
data on the number of LEAs receiving EHCY grants and on the
characteristics of homeless students; and a discussion of proposed
changes to EHCY included in bills introduced in the 112th Congress
to reauthorise the ESEA. The book also describes the challenges in
defining and counting the runaway and homeless youth population, as
well as the factors that influence homelessness and leaving home.
