Our first vigil for youth experiencing homelessness was 35 years ago. Today, the crisis has only grown.

Light your candle to remember that every young person deserves unconditional love and absolute respect: https://www.covenanthouse.org/light-a-candle?sourceid=2510665&origin=&utm_source=2610vigilimsocial1a&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=FY27Vigil&utm_content=CHI2610vigilimsocial1

“Why don’t they go back?” is a question that would only make sense if youth homelessness were a choice. It’s not.

88 Sleepers. 21 teams. One purpose.

The Reinsurance industry gave up their beds last night in solidarity with youth experiencing homelessness. By spending one night outside, they raised almost half a million dollars to keep Covenant House doors open 24/7 for youth in New York and New Jersey.

Biggest & boldest Cov Hill Day yet!

We brought Covenant House experts to Capitol Hill last week to push Congress on ending the youth homelessness crisis. Our advocates met with their representatives and senators to advance our common-sense policy agenda:
❇️ Modernize federal funding for youth homelessness services
🏠 Make sure HUD can continue to support homeless youth
🏢 Build Affordable-for-Youth-Housing
👣 Protect youth from human trafficking
🌎 Help our Latin America sites serve youth internationally

Speaking up can make change. We're going to end youth homelessness as we know it today.
