Oxford University Press, 2026

Schools across the US will continue to contend with the effects of students experiencing homelessness as families and communities continue to face precarious housing and economic conditions. School social workers, counsellors, nurses, psychologists, and other related-services personnel are often at the forefront of addressing educational needs for children and youth experiencing homelessness. School-based Practice with Children and Youth, 2e is one of the few books that guides practitioners on navigating the various conceptualizations, policies, and school-based practices with students experiencing homelessness. With uncertainty around programming and policy, this book guides practitioners on the key components and approaches to addressing the challenges many children, youth, and families experiencing homelessness face as they pursue educational opportunities. The book takes readers through an understanding of homelessness as an issue, the impact it has on child and youth outcomes, the policies that govern how we practice, specific, policy-based positions within the school, and finally, a practice perspective to help frame our approaches to work with students experiencing homelessness. Written with practitioners in mind, the book is loaded with practical examples and serves as a solid handbook about how to address the educational needs of students experiencing homelessness. This will leave readers with a way to frame thoughts and practices to help students experiencing homelessness in their educational pursuits.
