Sec. 5.
Policy.
The General Assembly finds that children have the most
success in
school when they have a stable learning environment, and the need for a stable
learning environment is especially
great for children from families that are experiencing a housing crisis.
The General Assembly further finds that the goal of school stability for
homeless children is best served if the entities arranging, referring, or
placing homeless families in shelter facilities take into consideration the
educational needs of the children.
