The U.S. Interagency Council on homelessness recently released the federal strategic plan to end homelessness. After hundreds of interviews and focus groups with stakeholders throughout the country, the Council’s first objective, as described in it’s report, is to strengthen collaborative leadership among and between governmental and private entities. On p. 34, the report states:
\n“Strong leadership is needed at federal, state, and local levels and across all sectors to
\nestablish and implement action plans that achieve results for people experiencing chronic
\nhomelessness, and for families, youth and children, including Veterans and their families.
\nSuch plans should be locally driven, reflecting local conditions, since a one-size-fits-all plan
\ndoes not exist. Interdisciplinary, interagency, and intergovernmental action is required to
\neffectively create comprehensive responses to the complex problem of homelessness.”
\nSuch is the work that is needed in the education realm, as well. Addressing the needs of students in homeless situations is a multi-level, multi-agency task.<\/p>\n
