Salt Lake County’s Youth Action Board recently received a $2.7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development through the Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program.
SALT LAKE CITY — As someone who experienced homelessness at the age of 18, Cameron Thompson says youth homelessness is an issue that’s not always seen.
“The vouchers that we will be getting from this grant may be the very definition of if they are homeless or if they are homed," said Thompson. “Our youth are very vulnerable, and it's something that we don't really talk about," said Yixiao Burke, president of the Youth Action Board."We don't hear stories, so we are here to create that youth voice for the ones that who don't have a voice for themselves.”
