      We have about 4x as many families telling us they are struggling as we had last year… and I know there are many more who are not telling us.

      I can’t get the reply button to actually reply to the original post. Sorry!

      If a student is in a SPPS and under Mckinney Vento- doubles up in another district who is responsible for tuition to SPPS

      My question is: Have other Maine districts seen an increase of unhoused families?
