Virtual - zoom
Hosted by National Network for Youth (NN4Y)
Being an immigrant youth experiencing homelessness in the United States right now can be really overwhelming and scary, especially if you’re worried about your status. It is important to understand your rights and how to advocate for yourself when your instincts are telling you something is wrong.
This webinar is led by members of NN4Y’s National Youth Advisory Council (NYAC), young people with lived expertise of homelessness. Participants will learn about key legal rights related to housing, healthcare, education, workplace protections, vital documents, and safety. This webinar is open to young people, service providers, advocates, and anyone interested in supporting youth experiencing homelessness.
Information shared is available in our Know Your Rights Toolkit for Youth Experiencing Homelessness, developed with and for youth ages 13 to 25 who are experiencing homelessness without a parent or guardian.
