Homeless Services Forms

PATH: Student Information > General > Forms

Search Term: Forms

The Homeless Services module allows Kentucky districts to store and organize Homeless Services forms including a state-flagged interactive PDF form called ‘Homeless Youth and Children Addendum to Services’. Districts can add their own forms to this module and any future state Homeless Services documents will be added by Infinite Campus.

A DIS object will sync state-flagged Homeless Services forms from districts to the Kentucky State Edition and state-flagged Homeless Services forms are included in intrastate Student Records Transfers.
