Teen-On-Homeless Violence Increases

Legal Assistant
"Every generation has their thing. My father had the war in Korea, we had the war in Vietnam, and my kid has the war on poverty."
Walter Hicks,
Nurse Practitioner
"But studies also show that joining an angry mob is a great way for teens to avoid getting caught up in a gang."
