March 2025 Rise & Brew

The Impact of School Social Workers

This month, we celebrate the impact of school social workers who serve as lifelines for homeless students and families. As McKinney-Vento families search for stability, security, and opportunity, school social workers are often key connectors, delivering essential resources, advocacy, and hope to those who need it most.

In this 30-minute session, we’ll touch on:

  • The dedication of school social workers, who build bridges to provide tangible resources and pathways to success
  • The aspirations and challenges of homeless students and their families
  • The Collective Caregiving Framework, which embraces a community approach to support
  • How to help break the cycle of generational poverty by addressing toxic charity, and looking into best practices that support while also fostering resilience

Join us as we strengthen our collective efforts to support homeless students and their families.

Date: Tuesday, March 25, 2025
Time: 7:30 a.m. (EDT)
