Abstract	This study identified Masters of School Administration (MSA) students' knowledge and understanding of poverty and homelessness in schools and sought to increase leadership capacity to mitigate issues of homelessness and poverty in schools. This study provided targeted instruction, an opportunity for school leaders to engage in self-assessment and reflection of their knowledge of poverty and homelessness, and led participants to create school and school district plans to support homeless students. Findings indicate through focused online sessions, reflection in discussion boards, videos, experiential learning, and written assignments that participants reported increased leadership capacity to mitigate issues of homelessness and lead more socially just schools.
