ONWAB 2024 REGISTRATION IS LIVE!
One Night Without a Bed is not a simulation–it’s a show of solidarity with the National Youth H.O.P.E. (Homelessness Outreach, Prevention, and Education) Month initiative. Our mission is to raise awareness about basic human rights, accountability, and service here in Detroit. Together, we can send a message to these young people — who have so often been ignored — that we care and continue to be committed to equity and justice.
Join us in celebrating Detroit's youth's resilience, resourcefulness, and radiance as we raise awareness and rally support to uplift their future.

About Us
The goal of One Night Without a Bed is to:
1) generate momentum behind the achievements of DPC's resilient youth and
) raise funds so we may continue to provide young people with critical resources, safety, and support during a time when these services are needed more than ever.
Participants engage in 12 hours of education and meaningful activations so that Detroit youth can access to the resources that they need to live to their full potential.
Learn more about our ongoing commitments to this cause.
