This resolution expresses the House of Representatives' support for designating November 2025 as "National Homeless Children and Youth Awareness Month." It highlights the alarming increase in child and youth homelessness, noting that nearly 1.4 million enrolled students were identified as homeless in the 2022-2023 school year, a 14-percent rise from the previous year. The resolution also points out that homelessness significantly impacts children's health, educational attainment, and mental well-being, with higher rates of chronic absenteeism and increased risks for suicide among homeless youth. The resolution supports the efforts of businesses, governments, organizations, educators, and volunteers dedicated to meeting the needs of homeless children and youth. It applauds initiatives that raise awareness of the causes and potential solutions to child and youth homelessness, and those working to prevent it. Ultimately, the resolution encourages all stakeholders to intensify their efforts to address this critical issue during the designated awareness month.
