A proclamation is an official designation within a city, state, or county to honor and raise awareness on a specific day or month about a specific initiative, observance, or issue.
It will take all of us to END YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULT HOMELESSNESS. We need everyone in the community to come together!
This toolkit reviews how to get a proclamation issued in your community/state and use it to bring awareness to the critical issue of youth, young adults, and young family homelessness. The National Network for Youth has successfully requested and gotten many proclamations introduced at the federal level to raise awareness of youth homelessness and human trafficking in America.
