Foster Youth Resources
Students with an open DCFS case, including those in out-of-home care or receiving family reunification or maintenance services have specific rights and resources available to them. Through Assembly Bill 490, these students have specific rights to school stability, immediate enrollment, and other protections—plus access to supportive resources that help them stay on track toward graduation and future success.
Homeless (McKinney-Vento) Resources
The McKinney-Vento Act is a federal law established to assist homeless children and youth with enrolling, attending and succeeding in school. The goal is that homeless youth are guaranteed the same educational services that all students are provided in order to meet challenging academic standards.
Ways to Help at Home

- Have your child speak and answer questions in complete sentences.
- Read with your child every day.
- Monitor your child’s television, video game, and Internet use.
- Encourage your child to use the library.
- Instead of asking, “How was school?” try asking:
- “What made you smile today?”
- “Who did you sit with at lunch?”
- “Tell me something you know today that you didn’t know yesterday.”
