30% of homeless youth are just 15-16 years old.
FIVE EASY WAYS TO HELP RUNAWAY AND HOMELESS YOUTH
  1. Contact Your Members of Congress: Get the names of your Senators and Representative and how to reach them. Visit www.senate.gov and www.house.gov to identify your Senators and Representative and their contact information for both D.C. and home state offices. THEN, Call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 225-3121 to connect with your Senators and Representative.
  2. Contact your LOCAL Runaway and Homeless Youth Organization (RHY) and ask if they need volunteers
  3. Organize a HYGIENE DRIVE (a collection of soap, shampoo, socks, deoderant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, etc.) and deliver them to your local RHY organization
  4. Donate $5 or $10—ask five friends to do the same.
  5. Link your blog sites to the nn4youth.org site, encouraging friends to watch for action alerts and policy briefs so they can help us take action to end runaway and homeless youth.
