YOUTH ALLY HOMELESS & EDUCATION PREVENTION 
(YAHEP)

Did you know that in 2021, the McKinney Vento reported 512 homeless students within Johnson County schools? KIC-IT founded YAHEP to prevent youth homelessness by assisting youth in planning for post high school. YAHEP has shown to increase education achievement among at-risk students. This includes, but not limited to reducing high school dropout rates and increase graduation rates.
