SALT LAKE CITY — Utah has several resources for those experiencing homelessness. Between donations and the creating of foundations, philanthropists have prioritized homelessness resources for teens.

Teen centers are popping up throughout the state and those involved, from construction builders to school officials, are ready to discuss the accessibility.  

Dave and Dujanovic are hosting members from Teen Centers, The Miller and Hunstman Foundation  The Davis Education Foundation, Woods Cross High Teen Center, Hogan Construction, Lakeview Hospital and Volunteers for America. 

Each organization will discuss what went into building the resources, their involvement with teen homelessness and the importance of their presence within the community.

We want to hear from you.
