It's about education

It’s about education. Your home provides the environment to learn, feel safe and grow roots. Stable housing provides security that carries over into other aspects of life. Children without stable housing suffer in schools; they often fall behind academically and socially, lack social support systems, and disrupt the classroom experience for their educators and peers. When families move frequently, school records are often lost, creating delays for a child to enroll in the new school. Teachers must devote more time and resources into helping transient students adjust and are less able to direct attention toward other students.
