May is Mental Health Awareness Month
Early Head Start and Head Start programs assist families with small children ages 0-4 in need to assist them with their child development needs.
A Way Home America sponsored a Senate and House Briefing in Washington D.C. on Ending Youth Homelessness and Ashley Halladay-Schmandt, NMCAA Clinical Manager for Homeless Prevention, was asked to participate and talk about what Youth Homelessness looks like in rural America. Members of Congress and staff were asked to attend to gain a better insight on this problem that is impacting youth across the country. Great job Ashley!
