CAHomelessYouthProject

After receiving feedback from the community, we transitioned platforms to provide a more seamless data visualization & storytelling experience. We invite you to explore the new & improved You Count: California Youth Homelessness Data Hub! Visit tinyurl.com/YouCountDataHub for more.

In 2021 35,406 youth reached out to the National Runaway Safeline, about 10% of those were California youth. #NRPM2022

Data is a key tool used to support youth experiencing homelessness (YEH) even when significant data discrepancies are known. The # of YEH in CA range from 29k to over 275k, and when compared to housing there is only 1 bed available for every 7 YEH. #NRPM2022

On day two of education week, we want to shine a light on Black or African American, Latinx or Hispanic, or Multi-racial and Latino contacts that reached out to NRS. Contacts that identified as Black or African American increased 47% between 2019 and 2021.

Today is the start of National Runaway Prevention Month! In California there are enough youth experiencing homelessness to fill the SoFi Stadium! Learn more tinyurl.com/CaYouCountStory #NRPM2022 #youthhomelessness
