National Runaway Prevention Month
The National Runaway Switchboard (NRS) and the National Network for Youth (NN4Y) have designated November as National Runaway Prevention Month. Launched in 2002, this national initiative, National Runaway Prevention Month seeks to increase public awareness of the issues facing runaway youth. The month also strives to educate youth, families, and the public about steps that can be taken to prevent youth from running away, and about resources that are available to youth should they run, be banned from their home, or consider running. Visit http://www.1800runaway.org/rpm/rpm.html to utilize the runaway prevention kit for your school or organization.
