Officially: Runaway and Homeless Youth and Trafficking Prevention Act of 2025
Young people in crisis could get more consistent shelter, housing, outreach, and prevention help. The bill updates grant rules, adds protections against discrimination, and creates a new program to help youth before they become homeless. It also raises funding limits, though Congress would still have to approve the money later.
