Couch surfing is youth homelessness, too. In fact, for young people, it’s one of the most common and overlooked forms in our community. 💙🏠

Youth homelessness in Cuyahoga County is real—and solvable. A Place 4 Me's State of Youth Homelessness report lifts up the voices of young people, highlights system disparities, and examines the collaborative work happening across Cuyahoga County to ensure every youth has a place to call home.

When youth lead, systems change.

At A Place 4 Me, we live by the mantra “nothing about us without us.” We believe that change happens when young people with lived experience are empowered to design the very systems meant to serve them. 💙🏠
