School ends in June, meaning many built-in supports youth rely on disappear. That’s why the conversations, featured below, about youth homelessness on Rogers tv’s An Hour to Give are so timely and important.
Host Sam Laprade sits down with Jema Ntelameno, a youth with lived homelessness experience, Trisha Islam, United Way East Ontario’s Director of All That Kids Can Be, Jackie Kennelly, Carleton University Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, and Rachael Wilson, President and CEO of United Way East Ontario.
Through this show, we hear firsthand what youth homelessness can look like, why prevention is so important, what United Way is doing about it, and what you can do to help.
Learn more about how we are tackling youth homelessness and how you can Match the Moment.
