One thing I worry about is how much this program would cost and only help a very targeted subset of homeless. And how much each school has to spend is even going to vary and to accommodate them all you have to overbuild, provide 24/7 security?, that's a lot.
I think of a local school system that have well meaning and program after program heaped on it. Some fit within schools, some are there just because someone thought the school should do that thing.
So they have staff to maintain all these programs, not everyone even knows what is going on with many of these programs. Ultimately the school providing these services school to school is being done by people who are not social workers ... it's landing on clueless administrators, teachers, staff who aren't good at these things. And then each school eats the cost and lessons one by one...
I just don't know that from the community college level if this is an effective way to approach these things.
Then you have the usual problem that once they're out of the school, they're just out.
