🌟National Homeless Persons’ Remembrance Day – Honoring Lives and Taking Action

December 21st is National Homeless Persons’ Remembrance Day, a day to honor those who have lost their lives while experiencing homelessness. Observed on the winter solstice, the longest night of the year, this solemn day reminds us of the struggles faced by unhoused individuals and the urgent need for collective action to address homelessness.

Why It Matters 🌍

Homelessness affects people across all demographics, disproportionately impacting marginalized groups like veterans, LGBTQ+ youth, and people of color. Observing this day fosters awareness, empathy, and a call to action to support those experiencing housing insecurity and advocate for systemic change.

🌈 One Way to Observe

Organize a Candlelight Vigil: Host a moment of silence to honor lives lost to homelessness, offering a space for reflection and solidarity within your workplace or community.
