John Burton Foundation and
California Coalition for Youth have launched the Homeless Youth Capacity Building Project. This project, funded by the US Department of Health and Human Services, seeks to reduce homelessness among youth ages 16 to 24 in California by 1) organizing homeless youth providers to advocate for better local, state and federal policies, and 2) expanding the organizational capacity of nonprofit providers serving homeless youth. The project will select up to 60 nonprofit organizations from seven counties to participate in the two-year effort.
