A Safety Net for Homeless Students.
Pawlas, George; And Others
Educational Leadership, v51 n8 p82-83 May 1994

A school district task force composed of community members, university student tutors, and key players from transportation services, pupil assignment, health services, Chapter 1, extended day, exceptional education, and bilingual services has proven effective.
