Invisible Youth Network - Daytona Beach Chapter
Check out our videos!
the problem:
Invisible Youth is an expansive online network that provides resources and support for an estimated 1.5 million homeless at risk youth. Our influence is felt every day in cities all across America. Our mission is carried out through both partner organizations and volunteers who take to the streets to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and at risk youth to improve their quality of life.
Our focus reaches past the streets and lends itself to deterrence, research, resources, seminars, training and workshops that are provided to the communities and via the Internet. Despite our motto “Advocating for America’s Youth,” our endeavors are focused on all homeless and at risk youth with no regard to their geographic location. Mahatma Gandhi said, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world,” and with that in mind, The Invisible Youth Network envisions better lives for children who cannot see it themselves.

6why it's important:
Preventing the ever growing population of homeless youth in Daytona Beach is important to me because one homeless child is one too many! Considering all the organizations, and institutions that claim to advocate and protect children there should never be any homeless youth anywhere.
the plan of action:
My plan of action is to organize as many peers as I can and start a Daytona Beach chapter of Invisible Youth Network. The primary role of the Daytona Beach chapter will be street outreach in Daytona Beach and surrounding areas.
Specifics:
1. Organize a group/team of peers.
2. Partner with local organizations to make the community aware of our efforts and the ongoing problem.
3. Gather necessary materials and prepare volunteers for street outreach.
4. Help my communities Invisible Youth, one child at a time!
how you can get involved:
Others can help by letting their friends and family know what's going on in their community and finding ways to help.
