Hi, I'm creating a petition for a civics class assignment on youth homelessness. Teens are the major group that's suffering from youth homelessness with the majority aged 13 - 17. There are many reason why youths end up homeless but 77.5% stated that it was caused by being in a abusive relationship with their parents or not being able to maintain a steady relationship. Other factors that lead to homelessness are abusive relationships with relatives, financial struggles, and drug use. The life expectancy for a youth that experiences homelessness is 39. Youths who experience homelessness are more likely to struggle mental health, addiction, drug use and commiting crimes.

Please help bring awareness to this by signing the petition. 

Thank you for your support.
