Dear colleagues:
NCHE is pleased to announce the availability of a new resource from the National Center for Homeless Education.
College and Career Counseling for Students Experiencing Homelessness: Promising Practices for Secondary School Counselors
The education subtitle of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, as amended in December 2015 by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), includes a requirement for school counselors to support students experiencing homelessness in their college and career readiness. In order to equip school counselors to meet this new requirement and to contribute to the overall success of students experiencing homelessness, this research summary provides an overview of the research, issues, and practices related to secondary school counselors’ roles in supporting students experiencing homelessness in their postsecondary planning.
NCHE wishes to thank Dr. Stacey Havlik, Assistant Professor at Villanova University and former school counselor, for her work in developing this valuable resource.
