Blog 16: 2-Hour Meeting Answer #2

1. What is the best way to help homeless youth end the cycle of homelessness?
2. Educating the children/ teaching them a specific trade will be my second answer to my EQ.
3.

  • At public schools, due to the NECAC Act, homeless children can now have a variety of different resources available to them such as free lunches, therapists, and specialists in mental disorders
  • They will be able to make more money to provide for themselves due to earning a degree (high school degree, bachelor degree, etc.)
  • It exposes them to opportunities and the world beyond homelessness
4. Unknown. "Increasing Access to Higher Education for Unaccompanied Homeless Youth: Information for Colleges and Universities." N.p., n.d. Web.
5. I plan to continue my study of answer 2 by researching more articles on homeless children who have gone to college, or have gotten job.
