Description

Nowhere to Grow: Homeless and Runaway Adolescents and Their Families provides a deep look into the lives of youth living on the streets. Written by Les B. Whitbeck and Dan R. Hoyt, this work addresses the reality of runaway and homeless young people who congregate in downtown areas and malls across the Midwest. Unlike many who pass them by, these adolescents often look like any other child, yet they face the reality of having no home to return to at night. This book is built upon a significant study involving over six hundred runaway and homeless adolescents and more than two hundred caretakers. By examining data from cities across four Midwestern states, the authors offer a detailed perspective on the social challenges faced by these families. As part of the Social Institutions and Social Change Series, this text serves as a vital resource for those studying the complexities of youth homelessness and the social structures surrounding it.
