YHMD Petition

This YHMD, we are continuing our call to the state and federal governments to make ending youth homelessness a national priority by developing a targeted plan and funding the services needed to achieve this objective.

For too long, the specific and complex needs of children and young people at risk of or experiencing homelessness have been assumed to be the same as those of adults and have not been explicitly addressed in government plans to address homelessness.

We are calling for a commitment to develop and fund plans specifically designed for children and young people.
