So often you hear, "We don't have homelessness in our town." or "It's a big city problem." or "They could get a place if they wanted to." or "Kids aren't homeless."
More than 1.6 million invisible children and youth can be found across America, in every community. They need your help.
HEAR US provides powerful tools and services to understand, identify and assist homeless children and youth.

Think you know homelessness? Think again...
Seven women courageously step out of America's shadow of shame, homelessness, lugging family troubles and deep-seated anxiety as they grapple to avoid returning to their nomadic existence. Their brutal honesty reveals not only the turmoil and tragedies that led to their homelessness but also their vulnerability of returning to a life of invisible struggle to survive. Their stories give new meaning to life on the edge.
