AMNY | The city’s housing crisis continued its toll on the most vulnerable New Yorkers, homeless children, according to a new report released Monday by the education nonprofit, Advocates for Children of New York (AFC).

The report found that for the 2024-2025 school year, the city’s over 150,000 students who identified as homeless had higher rates of chronic absenteeism, frequent school transfers and poorer outcomes on standardized testing, according to the AFC report, which based its findings on publicly available data.
