November is National Homeless Youth Awareness Month
|
|
In Baltimore, there are dangerously few services available to support youth experiencing homelessness.
Here's what we're doing about it:
St. Ambrose has swiftly arrived at the front lines of this crisis locally and nationally because of the expertise we developed through 30 years of Homesharing. This experience enabled us to act quickly to address this urgent need head on.
Using the existing network from our Homesharing program, we’ve been able to match young adults experiencing homelessness with a Host Home that can provide them with a stable and supportive environment.
Together, we can work towards ending youth homelessness, one young person at a time.

Baltimore County HOME Act passes!
Baltimore County recently passed the HOME act, which stands for Housing Opportunities Made Equal. The HOME Act prohibits landlords from refusing to rent to tenants based on their source of income.
"We’re here today because we believe that every person deserves the chance to provide their families with a safe and affordable place to call home. Discrimination, in any form, is simply wrong.” – Baltimore County Executive, Johnny Olszewski Jr.
