Homeless Youth Awareness Month

Homeless Youth Awareness Month (HYAM) is held throughout the month of November as a way to bring awareness and help at-risk, runaway and homeless youth. We ask YOU, our community, to unite in our work to end youth homelessness because we cannot do it alone.

How can WCYFS help?

WCYFS offers safety, refuge and mentoring to homeless youth throughout the county. We provide emergency shelter where homeless youth can seek immediate support, a transitional living program, where young adults participate and live while they are transitioning to independence as an adult, clothing closet, laundry and shower facilities, mail services, hygiene and first-aid supplies and more.
