    Jul 13, 2017

    Angelina Chapin describes this not-uncommon scenario from her youth, “I was carpooling to work when we passed a homeless man with a cardboard sign on the side of the road. ‘Get a job!’ belted one of my colleagues out the window, who up until that point I had had a crush on.” The Minnesota Statewide Homeless Survey, conducted every three years by Wilder Research, dispels the myth that people experiencing homelessness are not participating in the workforce; in fact, 30 percent of adults and 42 percent of youth were working at the time of the sur...

  • As Schools Tackle Poverty, Attendance Goes Up, But Academic Gains Are Tepid

    Jul 13, 2017

    P.S. 123, a K-8 school in Harlem, had been a chaotic place when Melitina Hernandez arrived as principal in 2013. Students would often run out of class to get attention.

So Hernandez and her staff set out to make big changes with a $4 million grant from the state. They started with upgrading technology and other classroom amenities. They also turned their attention to the needs of the school’s large population of homeless children. T...

    Jul 13, 2017

    Aidan Long is a 13-year-old from Montana who has suffered multiple daily seizures since he was 4. The seizures defy medical cure, and some of them continue for weeks, requiring Aidan to be airlifted to children’s hospitals in Denver or Seattle, said his father, Ben Long. The medical bills to Medicaid and his private insurance have been enormous. “I kept track of these until about 2 million bucks, and then I said I can’t spend any more time worrying about it,” his father said. https://www.disabilityscoop.com/2017/07/11/plan-s...
