November is Youth Hope Month, dedicated to addressing youth homelessness through outreach, prevention, and education. Each year, nearly 4.2 million young people experience some form of homelessness, which is unacceptable. The Wayne County Department of Aging and Youth, in partnership with United We Stand, is working to shed light on the struggles of runaway and homeless youth. You can make a difference by supporting our efforts. United We Stand and the Wayne County Department of Aging and Youth are hosting a Cocoa and Coats event on Thursday, November 13, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at United We Stand, 2 Broad St., Lyons. We will be collecting coats, winter gear, and food for local food pantries. Donors can enjoy a delicious cocoa bar as a thank-you for their generosity. We are also asking everyone to wear green on Thursday, November 13th, in honor of Youth Hope Month.
