National Network for Youth NN4Y


The National Network for Youth (NN4Y) has been a public education and policy advocacy organization dedicated to the prevention and eradication of youth homelessness in America for over 40 years. As the largest and most diverse network of its kind, NN4Y mobilizes over 300 members and affiliates –organizations that work on the front lines every day to provide prevention services and respond to runaways and youth experiencing homelessness and human trafficking.


Supporting NN4Y, the architects of the federal Runaway and Homeless Youth Act, which was first signed into law in 1974, is a true honor.
