Children who relocate after 60 days in Manhattan can return to the arrival center, reapply, and be placed near their school based on availability and family composition.
- Children returning to the arrival center must reapply for accommodation.
- The reapplication process considers the family's composition and the child's school enrollment.
- Efforts are made to place the family as close to the child's school as possible, depending on vacancies.

That's what the and parents are asking me, and I don't know the answer to that.
2:22:25
Mhmm.
2:22:25
In other words, you know, summer comes, you wanna go stay at p s 87 or whatever.
2:22:30
How does that work?
2:22:51
Okay.

So it's the same process that people have now.
2:22:35
They will go back to the arrival center.
2:22:37
They'll reapply.

We will take holistic picture of their family composition, what schools they're in, and what vacancies we have, and attempt to place them as close to their school as possible.
