Homeless programs honored

Posted: 10/26/2011 1:20:06 PM

For the second year in a row, two Wisconsin programs have won awards for serving students who are experiencing homelessness.

Milwaukee Public Schools won "Outstanding School Based Program" and Jani Koester, a teacher in the Madison school district, won "The Sandra Neese Lifetime Achievement Award," from the National Association for the Education of Homeless Children and Youth (NAEHCY).

A "dedicated committee of State Coordinators for Homeless Education and other experts in the field" uses a screening and selection process to choose the recipients, according to NAEHCY's website.

The number of homeless students has gone up in Wisconsin in recent years.
