The youth in our program are dealing with at least one of the
barriers listed above.  In most cases, they are dealing with
several layers of barriers at one time.

We were able to also provide clothes, food, and bedding for
those who had been sleeping on their floor.

Transportation is a major issue.  Without transportation these
youth have difficulty getting to school, jobs, recreation, and
commerce.
