Posters and Brochures available in English and Spanish

THEO has developed free English and Spanish posters and brochures outlining the educational rights of students and families who are experiencing homelessness for distribution throughout Texas. These materials have space on them so that you can enter your own local contact information, and are available free of charge. Public posting of the educational rights and responsibilities of children and youth in homeless situations in all places where services may be accessed is a requirement of the McKinney-Vento statute.
