In communities across the globe, notably in Calgary, the challenge of homelessness impacts numerous lives, and one facet that is often overlooked is the experience of children in these situations. When families or parents experience homelessness, this means children, too, are experiencing homelessness. When supported with compassion and understanding, children in these situations demonstrate not just resilience but incredible strength and potential. We are exploring the unique experiences of children who face homelessness and emphasize the strengths-based approaches and inclusive, trauma-informed care strategies that can profoundly support their well-being, development, and educational success.

November is National Homeless Awareness Month, and at House of Refuge, we want to shed light on the realities of homelessness here in Arizona and share how we’re tackling this issue head-on. For many families, homelessness is the result of sudden, overwhelming circumstances—job loss, domestic violence, or a major health crisis. At House of Refuge, we understand that homelessness isn’t just about lacking shelter; it’s about the profound impact on families’ lives and futures. That’s why we provide more than a temporary home. We offer transitional housing with comprehensive wrap-around services to get to root causes of homelessness for each individual family- including employment support, financial education, counseling, and resources for children and teens. Our programs are designed to empower each family on their path to self-sufficiency and long-term stability. This month, we invite you to join us in raising awareness and supporting families who are working hard to overcome homelessness. Together, we can build a brighter, more hopeful future for every family in Arizona. https://lnkd.in/gBMpxyxf #fromhomelesstohopeful #nationalhomelessawarenessmonth

November is Homelessness Awareness Month, a time to step back and recognize the reality that homelessness can happen to anyone. Life is unpredictable, and sometimes, it takes only one unexpected turn to find ourselves in situations we never imagined. It’s not that people don’t care, but that homelessness can be a hard issue to look at closely—it’s often easier to compartmentalize or look away from something that stirs up so many emotions. Whether you’re a policymaker, a community leader, or a concerned neighbor, this month invites each of us to take a moment and face the complexity of homelessness. It’s not just about a lack of housing; it’s about support systems, opportunities, and our shared responsibility to build sustainable solutions. This November, consider reaching out to your local agencies or Continuum of Care (CoC) organizations. Ask how you can learn more, advocate, or volunteer.
The Kansas Statewide Homeless Coalition extends its sincere thanks to Governor Laura Kelly for proclaiming November as Homelessness Awareness Month in Kansas. This recognition emphasizes the importance of raising awareness around homelessness and strengthening our commitment to those impacted across our state. Homelessness Awareness Month isn’t just about statistics; it’s about the real stories and struggles that Kansans experiencing homelessness face every day. This proclamation serves as a powerful reminder that we, as a community, can come together to create lasting change by supporting meaningful solutions. Throughout November, let’s elevate the voices of individuals with lived experience, learn more about the challenges of homelessness, and explore how each of us can make a difference. Together, we can work toward a future where every Kansan has a safe, stable place to call home. Thank you, Governor Kelly, for your leadership and commitment.
