SchoolHouse Connection is a national nonprofit organization working to overcome homelessness through education. Children and youth who experience homelessness are far less likely to complete high school than their peers. Access to stable and equitable high-quality education, from early childhood through postsecondary education, helps equip students to end the cycle and experiences of homelessness and achieve their dreams.
