July is National Minority Mental Health Month and as providers of mental health care who primarily work with minorities, it’s important for us to highlight the need for these services for youth experiencing homelessness. Tackling the unique challenges that our youth face as they work towards a better future is a responsibility that we do not take lightly. See how you can help via the link below and be the reason someone has a brighter tomorrow. Volunteer: https://lnkd.in/gfWQysfV #endyouthhomelessness #mentalhealth

As we celebrate the freedom of our nation, let’s not forget the young people we serve who are working towards their own independence. Your support can mean the difference for these youths as we help them create their own independent futures. #endyouthhomelessness #4thofJuly

Covenant House Texas reposted this
Today's decision by the Supreme Court in the Johnson v. Grants Pass case sets a dangerous precedent for the quarter of a million people who sleep outside each night in America and for the millions of families who are just one missed paycheck away from homelessness. This ruling makes it easier to jail or ticket homeless people and youth for sleeping outside, which will make homelessness worse. Covenant House stands unwavering in our commitment to be there for any youth who comes to our doors. Help end youth homelessness and create opportunities for self-reliance when you make your gift today: https://lnkd.in/eJ5MB93m.

Happy Juneteenth! Today we celebrate the end of slavery in the U.S. and honor the resilience of the African American community. Let's reflect on our history, commit to justice and equality, and work towards a future where liberty truly means freedom for all. #Juneteenth #CovenantHouseTX #CovenantHouse
