A public policy program for high school-aged youth run by the Center for Court Innovation, is seeking young people who have experienced homelessness or housing instability to participate in a youth-led focus group on Saturday, March 25, 2017. The focus group will run from 12:00 – 2:00pm, and will be held at 520 8th Avenue on the 18th floor. Youth must be between the ages of 16 and 24 and have personal experience with homelessness or housing instability.  

Call or text the program at (408) 391-2010 or yjb@courtinnovation.org to register.  Previous focus group participants have found it to be a rewarding experience, and the information from focus groups has been invaluable in getting the voices of young people into policy conversations.

For their participation, focus group participants will receive pizza, a $15 Visa gift card, and a round-trip MetroCard, as well as the knowledge that their voices are being heard.  Interested youth must contact us at (408) 391-2010 or yjb@courtinnovation.org by March 24, 2017.
