16 Hours and 49 Minutes: The time between school ending one day and starting the next
Project 16:49 is a local non-profit organization serving Rock County’s unaccompanied homeless teens. We believe every child deserves an opportunity to succeed. To that end, Project 16:49 ensures access to the services and support these students need to remain in school, graduate and become self-sufficient adults.
November Is Youth Homelessness Awareness Month
It’s Youth Homelessness Awareness Month and we are kicking it off with our 30 Days and 30 Ways to make an impact calendar, which you can click on and download. Check out all of the ways you can help support life-changing opportunities for our community’s homeless youth!
Youth Homelessness Awareness Month is a time to acknowledge those who are or have experienced homelessness, learn more about the issue, educate others by sharing what we learn, and support efforts to End Youth Homelessness.
Join us for Wear Green Day Thursday, November 10th, and help raise awareness of the issue of youth homelessness! Don’t forget to post your photos to Facebook with #EYH1649 and tag us!
