Homelessness during pregnancy or in the first three years of a child’s life has lifelong consequences on physical health and mental well-being. When families have safe, stable housing—safe shelter when they need it—and access to high quality early development programs and other supports that meet their needs, young children have a strong foundation to grow. PCA America, Housing Is, SchoolHouse Connection, and ZERO TO THREE are partnering together to raise awareness on infants and toddlers experiencing homelessness, promote our shared policy roadmap, and build a more supportive and connected system for families. In this session, we will discuss our current communication and policy initiatives and elevate the message that homelessness is preventable, especially with cross-sector collaboration. We will also share insights from our work with community partners and other champions in this space and highlight strategies for building and maintaining partnerships.
