Youth Homelessness Matters Day

Today is Youth Homelessness Matters Day, an annual and national initiative aimed at raising awareness and encouraging conversations about youth homelessness.

It started in 1990 and advocates for youth who leave home with nowhere to go and have little social support, and while things have improved since the annual campaign started, there’s still a long way to go.

Fiona Bartholomaeus chats with CEO of Youth Affairs Council of WA Sandy McKiernan about youth homelessness.
