Tonny sits down with Whitney Bunts, Senior Director of Public Policy at True Colors United, they discuss working with young people in New York and Atlanta, misconceptions about youth homelessness, gatekeeping as a white supremacist tactic, and the importance of youth involvement in policy change. Whitney aims to equip young people with skills to advocate for policy solutions and build coalitions to address the global housing crisis.
We can end youth homelessness
Every year, one in ten young people between the ages of 18-25 experience homelessness in the United States. In order to end the experience of homelessness, our society need to embark on drastic change by prioritizing young voices and building systems that support the needs of young people. With every purchase, a shirt will be donated to a young advocate with lived experience of homelessness. #YoungPeopleToTheFront
