The Metro: Covenant House Michigan brings awareness to youth homelessness with Sleep Out Detroit
Covenant House Michigan has been serving the state’s homeless youth population for nearly 30 years.
For the past 12 years, the organization has hosted “Sleep Out Detroit”. The annual event is a part of an annual movement held across the globe. It’s also during National Youth Homelessness Month.
On November 20, more than 100 people will camp out to financially support and bring awareness to youth homelessness.
CEO Megan Dunn and Detroit-based artist and public speaker Phillip Simpson joined The Metro’s Tia Graham to talk more about “Sleep Out Detroit” and the importance of spreading awareness.
