Subtitle VII-B of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 (McKinney-Vento Act) authorizes the Secretary of Education to provide grants to states [42 U.S.C. § 11432(a)]. Grants provide services and activities to improve the identification of students who qualify as homeless, as well as to enable the students to enroll in, attend, and succeed in school. Grants are also used to establish or designate an office of the state coordinator, to develop and implement the state plan required under the McKinney-Vento Act, and to develop and implement professional development for liaisons and school district staff [42 U.S.C. § 11432(c)(3)(d)]. Using the most recently available data, this brief examines the number of school districts that receive McKinney-Vento subgrants and the number of students identified by those districts as children and youth who experienced homelessness.
