Educating Children Impacted by Homelessness


Post-Shelter Support Services

When families move out of shelter, School on Wheels moves with them. We provide continued support to families regarding their children's education after moving out of shelter.

Our staff can help parents with school registration, transfer of records, uniforms and supplies to make the transition to a new school easier for the child. When possible, students can continue to receive one-on-one tutoring.

Sarah, who has moved to permanent housing, still does her homework at 6:30 every night because that is when her tutor came to the shelter.

"My family moved 3 times in less than a year. All those statistics about kids suffering academically... that didn't happen to my kids because of School on Wheels." - Chris, parent
