This is a special link to a recent award-winning public radio program that was produced in cooperation with a good friend of mine, Jamila Larson--originally from Cable, Wisconsin--whose life work centers around improving the lives of homeless children and other children living in poverty in Washington, DC. It's an amazing show that debunks countless myths about people who are homeless and offers incredible stories of resilience in the face of adversity by young people tragically forced to become adults long before their time. Check it out -- it's powerful stuff. --John Q "The Invisible----Children without Homes" A Special Broadcast of the Bob Edwards Show
