School Social Worker

Our elementary Social Worker provides support to students and families experiencing difficulties both within school and within the community. This support may include school attendance, residency concerns, foster care, homelessness, and other life-assistance programs.

If you are experiencing housing issues, including displacement from your current residence, please contact the Penn Hills School District Homeless Liaison for further consideration and support for your family. Our District Homeless Liaison is Kyoko T. Henson, LSW. She can be reached at 412-793-7000 x1218. More information about the MCKINNEY-VENTO HOMELESS EDUCATION ASSISTANCE IMPROVEMENTS ACT (2001) can be found at the end of this manual.
