Young adulthood is a formative phase of life, but for those experiencing homelessness, it can be especially challenging. The number of young adults without housing in Louisville is lower than it was, but local organizations are working to push the figure down even more. And upcoming federal funding is expected to help them do that.
In this installment of The Next Louisville, WFPL’s Amina Elahi explores why homeless young adults face different challenges than other age groups.

And trauma can affect YOUNG people more severely than adults. In this edition of The Next Louisville, WFPL's Kyeland Jackson looks at the effects of trauma on young people in Louisville.
