"The average age of homeless kids is 6-1/2 years.": http://youtube.com/watch?v=IdASkfrcglQ

"The focus on individual problems shifts attention away from structural problems and obscures the real causes of homelessness."

"Homelessness is caused by poverty, insufficient affordable housing and insufficient money to pay for housing, and a weak or nonexistent safety net of income maintenance and support services."
