| | | Youth on the Move November is National Runaway and Homeless Youth Prevention Month, and House of Hope is working with partners throughout northeastern Wisconsin to raise awareness for youth in crisis with Youth on the Move. This month-long event shines a light on the very real needs of homeless youth and provides welcoming spaces for young people in crisis in our community. In partnership with Home Base at the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Fox Valley, businesses and organizations will put temporary green footprints on their windows to mark their location as a safe space for youth in crisis. The green footprints let youth know their community supports them. Any space with green footprints will allow youth to come in, warm up, use wi-fi, and learn about community resources. In recognition of Youth on the Move, Green Bay Mayor Eric Genrich issued a proclamation declaring November as National Runaway & Homeless Youth Prevention Month! |
|
