Invisible Youth is an expansive online network that provides resources and support for an estimated 1.5 million homeless at risk youth. Its mission is carried out through both partner organizations and volunteers who take to the streets to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and at risk youth to improve their quality of life. Its focus reaches past the streets and lends itself to deterrence, research, resources, seminars, training and workshops that are provided to the communities and via the Internet.

Despite their motto “Advocating for America’s Youth,” their endeavors are focused on all homeless and at risk youth with no regard to their geographic location. Mahatma Gandhi said, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world,” and with that in mind, The Invisible Youth Network envisions better lives for children who cannot see it themselves.

The Invisible Youth Network was founded on March 26th 2007 by Russell T. Hartsaw in San Diego. The Invisible Youth Network was organized under Internal Revenue Service Publication 1828, Page 3, and is a Nonprofit, Charitable Organization, with 501 (c) 3 status.
