The city has launched a new push to convince migrant kids to go to school instead of dangerously selling food and drink on the side of roadways.
A multi-agency task force quietly formed two months ago — consisting of staffers from the Administration for Children’s Services, Department of Education, and Mayor’s Office to End Domestic and Gender-Based Violence — will now pivot to roadside outreach after The Post last week revealed how young migrant children were routinely peddling on major thoroughfares in southwest Queens .
The task force is currently focusing efforts at city shelters trying to convince migrant parents to send their kids to school.
