November is National Runaway Prevention Month – Get Involved!

We hope you will join us this November to Shine a Light on youth experiencing homelessness. Use these resources to get involved. Also, there are many events you can get involved with. Here are some highlights:

November is National Runaway Prevention Month (NRPM), a public awareness campaign designed to “shine a light” on the experiences of youth experiencing homelessness and youth who run away from home or other places. Too often, these youth and their experiences remain invisible. NRPM is also an opportunity to spotlight the resources available to support youth in crisis throughout the nation and advocate for policy change for our youth. As part of the campaign, individuals, organizations and communities nationwide are encouraged to take action, get involved, and work together to prevent youth homelessness.
