Homelessness is not only an adult problem… countless teens also find themselves living on the streets. This problem is most prevalent among youth that age out of foster care and suddenly find themselves homeless, without a support network, and completely unprepared to survive on their own. The teens and young adults that Daniel Kids help find themselves without a stable home, parental support or financial resources.
