Youth Homelessness Summit

press release: The Dane County Homeless Services Consortium is sponsoring a Homeless Youth Summit on September 14, 2018, from 8:00am – 4:00pm at Lakeview Lutheran Church, 4001 Mandrake Road.

The Dane County Homeless Services Consortium is a partnership of service providers, funding sources, advocates, and formerly homeless persons committed to preventing and ending homelessness.

The vision of the Community Plan to End Homelessness (2016) is that all households in Dane County have the opportunity to secure and maintain safe, stable, and affordable housing. The plan acknowledges significant gaps in services for 12-24 year olds. The Homeless Youth Summit is being held to educate the public about these gaps in services as well as to solicit ideas about ending youth homeless from young people who have experienced homelessness.

The Youth Homelessness Summit requires prior registration: contact Jenna Schmitt at jennas@trhome.org, or at 608-444-8605

Location: Lakeview Lutheran Church 4001 Mandrake Rd. Madison, WI 53714, free parking in the church parking lots, a light breakfast and a lunch will be provided.
