The National Network for Youth’s annual National Summit on Youth Homelessness and Hil Day is happening on February 27-28, 2025 in Washington, D.C.—and virtually! This event will bring together service providers, youth advocates, school districts, policymakers, and other passionate individuals. Highlights include: ● Meeting directly with legislators on Day 1 for Hill Day. ● Breakout sessions on youth partnerships, housing, education, and innovative solutions. ● Opportunities to learn from NN4Y’s National Youth Advisory Council and other youth with lived experience of homelessness. With a new Congress and Administration in place, it’s more important than ever to educate our federal policymakers about youth homelessness. We need your voice in this fight! Register now to join us in February and help ensure that youth homelessness remains a priority for our new leaders in Washington. General Registration is now open, with a group discount for four members from the same organization.

This November, we’re proud to support Youth Homelessness, Outreach, Prevention, and Education (HOPE) Month, a public awareness campaign designed to raise awareness of the issues facing young people who have run away, are experiencing homelessness or at risk of other adverse outcomes. Let’s show young people they are not alone and there are resources available nationwide.
