The Alliance has published three new resources that include:

• A History of Runaway and Homeless Youth Act Funding, a policy brief that examines the funding history of the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA) since fiscal year 2001. The brief beaks down the historical funding of each of the three programs under RHYA: street outreach, basic centers, and transitional living programs;
• Housing and Outreach Strategies for Rural Youth: Best Practices from the Rural Youth Survey, a solutions brief that provides an overview of the host homes model that can be tailored to meet local needs, and service provider strategies for outreach to rural youth; and
• Addressing Post-/traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Caused by Homelessness, a solutions brief that provides an overview of PTSD, implications for providers, and principles of trauma-informed care.
