2025 Point Source Youth National Symposium On Solutions To End Youth Homelessness

Hundreds of youth leaders, advocates, and young people from across the country came together in Baltimore, MD on October 7th & 8th for an opportunity to share solutions, build community, and advocate for a shared mission: prevent youth homelessness. At OUTMemphis this is a huge part of our work and we value the team who help our youth to find stability in their lives. We sent two of our Case Managers to learn from like minded individuals who are trailblazers in the youth homelessness space, here’s what they had to say:

This experience allowed me to hear from youth with lived experience and how they are leading the change to end youth homelessness. I specifically enjoyed listening to Gulf Coast Mississippi’s strategies to include their Youth Action Board in their work to address youth homelessness. Additionally, I got the opportunity to hear the incredible panel discussion from the Memphis and Puerto Rico Youth Action Boards.
