Young and homeless in America

This young woman is one of an uncounted number of young people who find themselves without a future in America. More and more of our youth find themselves on the streets, left by a
system of economic inequality to fend for themselves. Many gather together for mutual support and protection, often moving from town to town.
A new generation of poor youth is inheriting a world in trouble and a system that can’t give them a future. All ages wish to see a better future for those who come after them, and are outraged that so many have none at all. These young people, full of life and creativity, help us envision and organize for a new society.
