Abstract	The federal Every Student Succeeds Act prioritizes the needs and barriers of vulnerable youth, including students experiencing homelessness. Students experiencing homelessness are more likely to experience trauma and feel unsettled, move frequently and be highly mobile. Accordingly, the McKinney-Vento Homeless Children and Youth Program has guided the work to ensure that homeless children have equal access to the same high-quality educational opportunities as non-homeless children and youth. Creating systems and supports for Ohio's students will allow districts, schools, local liaisons and every school employee to better identify and support students experiencing homelessness. It is important for students to be in contact with reliable individuals who support and encourage the whole student, academically and non-academically. This report provides guidance for districts in regards to the Mckinney-Vento Homeless Act on the following topics: (1) district responsibility; (2) local liaisons; (3) identification; (4) best interest determination; (5) immediate enrollment; (6) academic credits; (7) dispute resolution; (8) Individuals with Disabilities Education Act; (9) high school; (10) non-academic barriers; (11) transportation; and (12) Title I funding to serve homeless students.
