The REACH Board

Youth leadership is essential to building solutions that truly prevent and end youth homelessness.

REACH Youth Action Board brings together young people with lived experience in homelessness, housing instability, and/or foster care to help shape systems, inform decisions, and advocate for change in our community.

Through REACH, youth and young adults use their voices, insight, and leadership to influence the policies, practices, and conversations that affect their lives. Their leadership helps ensure that efforts to prevent and end youth homelessness are grounded in lived experience, centered on belonging, and responsive to what young people actually need.
