Making the Invisible Visible: Westchester’s Hidden Homeless Children & Youth - Westchester Children’s Association (WCA) began its investigation into child and youth homelessness in Westchester County in fall 2017, to identify how the organization can lend its voice in advocacy to develop adequate and permanent housing for this population. Through comprehensive data analysis and conversations with homeless and formerly homeless community members, County service providers and stakeholders, and an array of government officials and staff, WCA began to identify and understand the complex experiences of homelessness among Westchester’s children and youth. This is WCA’s initial report on child and youth homelessness in Westchester and will be followed with additional information and analysis as WCA continues its work.
