Children and family homelessness is rising, often in ways we don’t see. Many families lack a safe, stable place to sleep due to rising costs, limited affordable housing, and unstable income. The impact on children’s health, education, and emotional well-being can last a lifetime.

Youth homelessness has lasting effects on health, safety, and opportunity. Certain groups are more at risk, and shelters often struggle to meet demand. Helping through volunteering, donations, and community drives can make a real difference.

Together, Help Homeless NY and The Borgen Project hope to spread awareness about the effects of global poverty. Various factors influence the rate and extremities of poverty. However, with The Borgen Project, we can advocate for policy changes and take anti-poverty measures.
