Purpose of the Eligibility Screening

The eligibility screening helps determine who qualifies for services and support through our homeless community programs. This process ensures that vital resources are directed to individuals and families who need them most. By assessing key factors such as current living situation, income, and individual needs, the Department of Early Learning and Title I can prioritize assistance in a fair and effective way. Once the screener is submitted, the department aims to connect each individual with the appropriate support, ensuring that students and families receive what is needed.
