This version, updated for the 2024 calendar year, has transitioned what were originally policy position statements into full policy recommendations. These are reflected, as such, in Policy Recommendations 4–6.

The following policy recommendations and position statements are put forth by A Way Home America’s (AWHA) Youth Policy Team (YPT). We are a team composed of seven young people from across the country working to build youth-centered housing justice.

The priorities in this agenda stem from AWHA’s New Deal to End Youth Homelessness, a federal policy framework that offers a roadmap to transform how youth and young adults, particularly Black, Brown, Indigenous, and other people of color (BIPOC), and LGBTQ+ young people, can be supported to thrive in our society.
