Youth homelessness is a complex issue affecting millions of young people in West Africa, many of whom struggle to find safe and stable living conditions. Confronted with family instability, limited access to education, healthcare, and social exclusion, these young people face an increased risk of exploitation, illness, and marginalization.

At Fondation Cœur Dedior, we address these challenges through advocacy, emergency support, and programs that help youth, families, and individuals experiencing hardship transition to safer and more sustainable opportunities. By raising awareness of the causes and consequences of youth homelessness, we aim to engage communities, policymakers, and donors in taking meaningful action
