DHHS Joins Stakeholders at Conference on Youth Homelessness

Concord, NH – The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services’ (DHHS) Bureau of Housing Supports, in collaboration with the State’s three Continuums of Care as established by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, will participate in a forum on youth homelessness on Thursday, March 5 at 9 a.m. at Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU). Sponsored by SNHU and the NH Coalition to End Homelessness, “Coming Together to End Youth Homelessness in New Hampshire” will provide an opportunity to join community partners, non-profit agencies, and young people with lived experience to call attention to youth homelessness in the State.

The event will feature an overview of youth homelessness in NH, remarks from state and federal leaders, panel presentations from young people who have experienced homelessness, and round table discussions designed to create a coordinated community response to prevent and end youth homelessness.

Youth will share their individual experiences and provide valuable insight into how communities can prevent and end youth homelessness. Local regions across the state will participate in round table discussions and use available New Hampshire data in order to share resources and identify opportunities for coordinated community response and solutions.
