Ending Youth Homelessness

You’re Invited to a morning of Film and Storytelling 

Join us for a special screening of a 40-minute film exploring the powerful stories of young adults; experiencing homelessness and thriving despite adversity, within our Gold Coast community. The film will be followed by an engaging panel discussion and opportunity for Q & A, on ending youth homelessness, local solutions, collective action and ways to support.

Hear from voices with lived experiences, advocates, and experts as we explore how storytelling can be a bridge to empathy and solutions.

Complimenting the film will be activities, particularly for young people to participate in - all FREE including tote bag screen printing, polaroid stand, badge making, entertainment, gallery tour, and merch. Together, we will also share in tasty snacks and lunch.

Everyone is welcome. RSVP for your FREE ticket and help end youth homelessness.
