Over 127,000 unaccompanied youth are navigating public school entirely on their own, fleeing abuse, neglect, or rejection. Housing is the single most vital intervention to protect them from trafficking and generational trauma. #HousingIsAHumanRight #HousingJustice #HousingFirst #RightToShelter

Youth experiencing homelessness without a high school diploma are 4.5 times more likely to become chronically homeless adults. Denying safe, stable housing to youth is a direct sentence to lifelong poverty and premature mortality on the street. #HousingIsAHumanRight #HousingFirst #RightToShelter

Independent research reveals at least 700,000 unaccompanied adolescents (ages 13–17) experience homelessness completely on their own each year. 700,000 children with no parents, no beds, and nowhere safe to sleep. #HousingIsAHumanRight #HousingJustice #HousingFirst #RightToShelter #SovereignWealth

Unhoused Americans have an all-cause mortality rate 3.5 to 4.2 times higher than the general public. Being deprived of shelter is as fatal as chronic, untreated disease. We must treat housing as #fundamental #healthcare to end this loss of life. #HousingIsAHumanRight #HousingFirst #RightToShelter

The average American life expectancy is roughly 78 years. For an unhoused person, it plunges to between 47 and 53 years. Homelessness literally steals three decades of human life. Housing isn't just shelter—it is life support. #HousingIsAHumanRight #HousingFirst #RightToShelter #SovereignWealth​
