Helping Nashville’s Children Find Stability When Housing Falls Out of Reach
The discussion will be led by Ken Larish.
Nearly 4,500 children enrolled in Metro Nashville Public Schools have no reliable place to call home, a 27 percent increase from the previous year. For many families, homelessness does not look like what people expect. It can mean living in a motel, doubling up with relatives, or sleeping in a car while trying to keep children enrolled in school. It is often hidden, and the issue is growing. Home Together Nashville, in partnership with the Community Foundation, focuses on helping families with school-aged children move from unstable living situations into consistent, safe housing while keeping children connected to their schools and support systems.
