Ending Youth Homelessness

Last updated on November 30, 2018

What's Driving Progress

To expand our understanding of the most effective interventions, we are partnering with communities on the

• Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program
• Youth/Young Adults with Child Welfare Involvement At-Risk of Homelessness grants
• and aggressive 100-Day Challenge goals 

Communities are also strengthening annual Point-in-Time (PIT) counts and other data collection efforts, and partnering with non-profit providers, schools, and researchers to improve our data and enhance our information about the scale and scope of unaccompanied youth homelessness.
