McKinney-Vento Program

At Nevada City School of the Arts, we are committed to ensuring that every child has access to a stable, supportive education. Families experiencing homelessness or housing instability may qualify for services and protections under the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act. These protections help ensure that temporary housing challenges do not interrupt a student’s education.

Who May Qualify?

Students may be eligible if they are living in a temporary or unstable housing situation, including:

  • Sharing housing with others due to loss of housing or financial hardship
  • Living in a motel, hotel, trailer park, or campground because there is no adequate alternative
  • Staying in an emergency or transitional shelter
  • Living in a car, park, abandoned building, or other place not intended for regular housing

Questions?
Please contact Jenn Goulart, McKinney-Vento Liaison.
