A funder-focused session in conjunction with the National Alliance to End Homelessness' 2014 National Conference on Ending Family and Youth Homelessness.

At this year's Funders Forum on Family and Youth Homelessness, we're excited to present our popular TableTalk Sessions, custom-designed to highlight issues that matter to you. Below, you'll find the names of the sessions you can participate in, along with facilitator-selected pre-reads to provide a foundation prior to the event. These pre-reads will be the basis of the conversations at the Funders Forum. Take a minute to study up so your TableTalk experience will involve a deeper dive into these crucial issues in Family and Youth Homelessness.
