Young people with lived experience of homelessness in Michigan are a critical and often overlooked voice in shaping policies and strategies to address this pressing issue. This presentation aims to engage and empower these youth. Through a series of interactive workshops, discussions, and storytelling sessions, participants will have the opportunity to learn about the unique challenges faced by youth at risk or experiencing homelessness, as well as the innovative solutions being implemented in Michigan and beyond. By amplifying the voices of those who have directly experienced homelessness, we hope to foster a more inclusive and effective approach to addressing this complex issue.
