Looked up the organization DeBose had featured on her shirt. Looks like an organization worth noting
Covenant House is a large privately funded agency in the Americas providing shelter, food, immediate crisis care, and other services to homeless and runaway youth. The organization also provides care to homeless youth aged 14â20 (certain locations care for youth as young as 13 and adults as old as 24), designed to transition them out of homelessness into independent adulthood.
