In this special episode, we’re stepping away from our usual format to bring you powerful messages of homelessness and hope, in recognition of Pennsylvania’s annual Education for Children and Youth Experiencing Homelessness (ECYEH) Student Homelessness Awareness Week.
Observed each November—most recently from November 11-15, 2024—this week shines a light on the critical importance of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act. It highlights the efforts to provide stability, consistency, and support to children and youth experiencing homelessness across Pennsylvania. You will hear recorded messages from some of Pennsylvania’s most dedicated advocates for students experiencing homelessness. Through their voices, we invite you to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges these students face, the life-changing resources they need, and the vital impact we can all make together. We hope these messages educate, inspire, and motivate you to take action. Each of us has the power to make a difference—and collectively, we can achieve even more.
