Funding will be awarded to two Homeless Education Technical Assistance Centers who will provide support and technical assistance to other County Offices of Education (COEs), in a regional approach, to ensure they have the capacity, resources, and the tools required to support their Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) with implementation of the Education for Children and Youth (EHCY) Act. The provisions of this Act are designed to improve the identification, educational stability, access, support, and academic achievement of children and youth experiencing homelessness.
