Abstract

The ARP Act authorized the ARP Homeless Children and Youth (ARP-HCY) program—an $800 million reservation within the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER III or ARP ESSER) Fund—to address the urgent needs of children and youth experiencing homelessness. This reservation seeks to support states and districts in identifying and providing homeless children and youth1 with wraparound services that address the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and ensure they can attend school and fully participate in school activities. With that, the purpose of this document is to provide districts with initial guidance regarding the ARP-HCY program, its awards, allowable uses, and consortia requirements.
