CM gets homelessness funds

ADAMS TOWNSHIP — The Clinton-Massie Local School district received a grant of over $20,000 through the Clinton County Foundation to address youth homelessness.

At the January meeting of the school board, CM Superintendent Matt Baker said many people probably would be surprised to learn there is a homeless population in the Clinton-Massie district.

The funds will be used in what the district is calling a homeless resource navigation pilot program, which is meant “to get kids out of homeless status and into permanent housing,” said Baker.
