List in formation
Through the Education Rights Project, the Family Resource Center works with families to ensure that children can continue to progress in school even though they are experiencing a housing crisis. The Project focuses on kids living in homeless shelters in East New York and those from the community who are living in poverty.
Our approach recognizes that parents and families, schools and shelter staff all have a role in ensuring that children don’t fall through the cracks. We seek to partner with community schools and shelters to help them better respond to children facing homelessness.
The proceeds raised from this auction will enable the Partnership to hire additional social workers and additional education advocates, which will increase our outreach into the community.
As a result, teachers and shelter staff will be better equipped to work with children before their circumstances develop into full-blown obstacles to schooling. Parents will be better prepared to work with the school system and to advocate for what their children need to advance academically.
The Partnership will not only address the issues faced by individual families, but will also advocate for school and shelter environments that foster the academic achievement of children who are homeless.
The social workers will
- work directly with the families of school-age children living in shelters and those who are at risk of becoming homeless
- work with the family on a variety of issues related to their housing, health and well being, financial stability, and ties to the community, all of which have an impact on children’s educational stability
- provide workshops and support groups for parents and children to help them learn new skills
The education advocates and other FRC staff will
- conduct the outreach needed to connect with children in shelters and with those in the community at risk of homelessness; and
- address current problems in school by working with families and school staff
- conduct training for teachers and shelter staff to provide them with concrete strategies for helping children who are homeless with their current schooling and future educational goals
