Sustainable Development Goals.  To reach our goals by 2020 rather than 2030.
How many sustainable development goals can be addressed by addressing our homelessness issue alone.  Connect the dots........ http://www.undp.org/content/undp/en/home/sustainable-development-goals.html

In September 2015, 193 world leaders agreed to 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development. If these Goals are completed, it would mean an end to extreme poverty, inequality and climate change by 2030.  Our governments have a plan to save our planet…it’s our job to make sure they stick to it.  The Global Goals are only going to work if we fight for them and you can’t fight for your rights if you don’t know what they are. We believe the Goals are only going to be completed if we can make them famous.
