In New York City, over a thousand children previously housed in migrant shelters have been forced to leave their schools due to reaching the shelter stay limit. This situation has potentially disrupted the education of nearly one in five children who were evicted from these shelters, as they are no longer enrolled in the same schools. The data revealing this issue was shared with the City Council, highlighting the ongoing challenges in the city's shelter system and its impact on migrant families.
