Invisible Youth is an expansive online network that provides resources and support for homeless, at risk youth and related organizations.
We do this, every day, in cities across America. We carry out our mission through our partner organizations and volunteers who go to the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and at risk...(more) youth improve their lives.
Our focus goes beyond street outreach and extends to deterrence, research, resource, seminars, training and workshops that we provide to the communities and via the Internet. But all facets of our mission are guided by that our volunteers shall tell kids that they care about them and then, at every point, prove it.
Although our slogan is “Advocating for America's Youth,” our endeavors are towards all homeless and at risk children no matter their geographical location, this being done by getting the word out about various other organizations who have programs in different parts of the world that help to give vision, visibility, and voice to their local youth.
I would like to invite you to visit: our website, for an overview of the Invisible Youth Network.
It is Christmas Eve in San Diego, California; we are experiencing a serious storm with heavy rain and wind, one of many with more to come. I am standing at my window in my studio apartment located in the East...(more) Village section, watching the many homeless walking by headed nowhere, as they have nowhere to go. San Diego is home to an estimated 10,000 homeless, 6,000 adults and 4,000 children. How many are in your community?There is an estimated 1.5 million children walking the streets of our cities alone.I am asking myself how our society can continuously turn a blind eye to the homeless.Our government is continually bailing out Corporate America, what is it doing for its people? And what is Corporate America doing for our people, except getting richer off of them while the people are getting poorer.There is no doubt that our Government and Corporate America leaves a lot to be desired, as well, our society does to.(less)
