Exploring Connections and Solidarity Across Youth Homelessness Prevention: Community Perspectives

This panel featured lived and community experts who are working in research, advocacy, or direct service provision with different populations of youth who are at-risk of housing precarity. Panelists discuss systems where youth homelessness could be prevented, including child welfare, education, and immigration systems, as well as imagine what prevention efforts might look in different contexts across Canada and internationally. They consider the following questions: How are young people experiencing trajectories into homelessness right now? What are promising ways to think of building strong systems of prevention across different territories? How can research support the work being undertaken by those with lived experience and communities most impacted by housing precarity in Canada and abroad?
