#BHeard Docs: Homeroom Dreams | NYC's Unhoused Student Crisis
During the last school year, some 104,000 New York City public school children lacked permanent housing- meaning 1 in 10 students were homeless.
Thousands of children lived in homeless shelters, were "doubled up," aka living with other families, were unsheltered in cars, abandoned buildings, or out on the streets.
These students are referred to as students in temporary housing (STH students).
Homeroom Dreams is about Riverdale Avenue Middle School in Brownsville, Brooklyn, where 18% of the student population lacks permanent housing. Along with the parents, Principal Pembroke and her staff are working to help the students cope with these challenges and to create a safe and supportive second home at school.
