About The Discussion Guide
The intention of this Discussion Guide is to support communities to engage with and immediately use the November 2018 “Toward a System Response to Ending Youth Homelessness” findings to improve decision-making related to coordinated community responses. The discussion questions may guide a deeper discussion of system improvement opportunities based on the findings, considering the current state of your coordinated response for youth.
It is recommended that communities identify the appropriate local youth-focused action group to discuss the following questions. Consider approaching this Discussion Guide by initially discussing each of the five findings independently, and then coming together to consider all discussion responses and determine how to move system improvement opportunities into action.
