Website Audit
Project details
What we need
- Feedback on the current website’s layout, user functionality, mobile-friendliness, visual design, content, and other key features
- Clear articulation of the Organization’s goals for the website
- Recommendations for improvements to help achieve the Organization’s desired goals
- Note: If you are looking for a more specific, in-depth audit of your website's design and usability, try our Website Usability Audit project
What we have in place
- We currently have a strong sense of what we are looking for, with lots of ideas to get you started. We have already surveyed our users for feedback on our current site. We have a full-time staff member excited to engage in this project. We need you to help us refine our ideas and approach our website redesign project in “website-speak.”
How this will help
This project will save us $4,762 , allowing us to help 75 more students in temporary housing get the support they need to enroll and stay in school.
Success in school is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and homelessness. Educators, social service providers, families, and youth across New York State repeatedly use our website to get important information about the rights of students experiencing homelessness. We need to present a wide array of resources in a way that is organized, user-friendly, and visually pleasing. When our users find the resources they are looking for, children and youth experiencing homelessness are better served at school.

Our mission
The New York State Technical and Education Assistance Center for Homeless Students (NYS-TEACHS) provides information, referrals, and trainings to schools, school districts, social service providers, parents, and others about the educational rights of children and youth experiencing homelessness. We are a project of Advocates for Children of New York, a nonprofit that works on behalf of New York City’s children who are at greatest risk for school-based discrimination and/or academic failure.
What we do
We lead trainings (both in-person and webinars), create and share outreach materials, run a year-round hotline, support trauma-sensitive school programming, and more – all with the goal of ensuring that children and youth experiencing homelessness have access to school, stability in their educations, and success in the classroom and beyond.
