Homelessness Awareness Week
December 1 - December 7
Homelessness Awareness Week, held annually in December, is a vital initiative that shines a spotlight on the issues faced by individuals experiencing homelessness. The week promotes understanding, compassion, and action, encouraging communities to work together to address the root causes of homelessness and support those affected.
Organisations, charities, and local councils often host events such as fundraising drives, volunteer initiatives, and educational workshops to raise awareness. These efforts highlight the importance of safe and stable housing, mental health support, and access to essential services in breaking the cycle of homelessness.
Homelessness Awareness Week is also an opportunity to challenge stereotypes and advocate for policy changes that address systemic issues. By amplifying the voices of those with lived experiences, the week fosters empathy and encourages meaningful engagement to create lasting solutions.
