January 8, 2025 (Lynnwood, Wash.) – TransAct, a leader in operational and compliance software for the education sector, today announced the Accelerating Impact Grant for At-Risk Student Support, a groundbreaking initiative designed to assist school districts in addressing the needs of McKinney-Vento eligible and other at-risk student populations. Through this program, three selected school districts will receive a three-year grant, providing Student Support Tracker software and comprehensive support at no cost.
This innovative software solution provides school staff who support McKinney-Vento eligible students with a single, access-controlled, digital case management tool for managing process referrals and requests, tracking case notes and services provided, and sending notifications to key student stakeholders when events occur in a student’s life. The platform is used throughout the country and is based on findings from TransAct’s widely recognized Nationwide McKinney-Vento Study, now in its third year.
Providing a three-year grant to Student Support Tracker reinforces TransAct's commitment to creating equitable opportunities for all students, especially those facing homelessness or other significant barriers to academic success.
“At TransAct, we understand the challenges school districts face in providing timely and effective interventions for at-risk students,” said Nate Brogan, CEO at TransAct. “With this grant, we aim to remove financial barriers and equip educators with the tools they need to support every student, regardless of circumstance.”
The Accelerating Impact Grant for At-Risk Student Support is now open for applications. The deadline for submissions is Monday, March 10, 2025. Any public school district may apply and will be selected based on their demonstrated need, commitment to student support, and potential impact of the software.
