TruancyLink is a comprehensive platform designed to combat chronic absenteeism in K-12 schools by shifting from punitive measures to proactive, data-driven support. It provides a confidential, easy-to-use mobile application for parents and guardians to report student absences and indicate underlying reasons (e.g., illness, transportation issues, family hardship, fear of immigration enforcement). This real-time data feeds into a school-facing dashboard, allowing educators and administrators to identify patterns, understand systemic barriers, and connect families with relevant local community resources and social services (e.g., food banks, health clinics, transportation assistance, mental health support). The platform aims to improve student attendance by addressing the root causes of absence, fostering trust, and building stronger school-community partnerships.
