PSY Innovation Summit
On Youth Advocacy & Direct Cash Transfers!
January 14-15, 2025 • Portland, OR
Youth Advocacy & Direct Cash Transfers
Our Innovation Summit on Youth Advocacy and Direct Cash Transfers exceeded all our expectations and goals. Nearly 500 incredible leaders registered, and the turnout, energy, and community focus on preventing and ending youth homelessness by directly resourcing young people were truly inspiring.
From national funders to state offices of homelessness —and especially young movement leaders—we came together, held space, organized, and reviewed data that reaffirmed what we know: Direct Cash Transfers and Flexible Cash Assistance are effective in preventing and ending youth homelessness.
A special thank you to our Platinum Community Champion, Gilead; and our Gold Community Champions ViiV Healthcare and the Oregon Department of Human Services for their support!
Stay tuned for details on our 2025 National Symposium on Solutions to End Youth Homelessness!
