Given the multiple issues presented by youth experiencing homelessness, it can be difficult and unrealistic to expect any one provider or agency to be able to meet all the needs of a child. Within the Health Care for the Homeless field, programs strive to respond holistically through interdisciplinary teams and community partnerships.
Social service programs that are developmentally and culturally appropriate offer tailored services to vulnerable populations. In most communities, a host of youth-serving agencies can complement each other and develop effective collaborations.
During this webinar, the presenter will provide an overview and identify programs and resources that respond to the needs of youth experiencing homelessness.
