The Solano County Office of Education has partnered with several local agencies to address the growing needs of homeless and foster youth in Solano County. Over the last school year, Solano County schools have identified 1,583 homeless students and 377 foster students. Homeless youth are often unaccompanied and couch surfing from home-to-home, living on the streets, in shelters, or staying temporarily with family or friends due to a loss of housing or financial problems. Foster youth often reside with a relative, in a foster home, or in a group home.
SCOE Adult Transition students, Zachary Herman and Sean Kielberg, had the opportunity to work with movie maker Joey Travolta of Inclusion Films at a camp in Stockton. The team had an interview on XTXL FOX40 News and shared their experiences. Mr. Travolta started Inclusion Films in 2007 which teaches individuals with development disabilities in five dedicated production studios throughout California. Mr. Travolta’s film crew travels the country doing short film camps for children and teens with autism.
