Posted on January 23rd, 2012 in Atlanta escorts
A recent report from the National Center on Family Homelessness ranks Georgia 41 out of the 50 states in child homelessness. The report, titled America’s Youngest Outcasts, states that more than 1.6 million children and youth, or one in 45, are homeless every year in America. About 45,500 of them are Georgians.
Quite often, the youth desperately in need of shelter is a 16-year-old boy has been kicked out of the home.
“But there is no typical case or profile,” Joye explained. “Sometimes it’s a 17-year-old girl who just got off a Greyhound bus, lured here with the promise of being in a music video. Sometimes it’s the child of a prostitute, a girl or boy escaping sexual abuse at home, or a kid from Seattle who thought he could meet [the rapper] Ludacris. They are Black, White, from parents who said ‘take my kid because I can’t deal with him anymore.’”
