Educating Homeless Children and Youth.
Brown, Polly A.
Journal of Health Care for the Poor and Underserved, v2 n1 p189-95 Sum 1991
Policymakers must identify the numbers of homeless children and youth, and acknowledge the barriers that impede the education of such children. Recommendations are made for policy at the federal, state, and local levels. Interagency collaboration among health care providers, private advocacy groups, and human resources agencies is also recommended. (SLD)
