This eye-opening event will examine the enormous impact of homelessness on queer youth, who comprise up to 40% of unhoused young people. It will include a panel featuring youth who face homelessness and those who provide them with assistance, as well as presentations from the local groups that assist unhoused youth and information on how concerned individuals can make a difference.
Admission is free, but donations to Stonewall Youth are urgently needed and will be gratefully accepted. If possible, we also ask those attending to bring nonperishable food, hygiene supplies, tents, sleeping bags and clean clothing for local groups to distribute to unhoused youth. The event is open to the public and refreshments will be provided.
