Homelessness is not a choice, yet it exists in almost every community. But why are people homeless? Who are they? What can you do? In Shelter: Homelessness in Our Community, readers will get answers to these complex questions. They'll learn about the root causes of homelessness and its effects, and what people and organizations around the world are doing to address the problem. It shares the personal stories of people who live on the street and the adults and kids who work with them. As a former homeless-shelter worker, author Lois Peterson encourages young people to approach the issue with knowledge and compassion. She dispels some of the myths about homelessness and makes the case for why everyone deserves a safe, permanent place to call home."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Peterson Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 362.592 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList
