Diane Rehm interviews author Kevin Ryan about youth homelessness at the NPR station WAMU 88.5.  Kevin is the author of Almost Home, a book about six homeless youth and their struggle to recover from hopelessness.

They talk about his experiences with Covenant House, youth homelessness across the United States, and why growing numbers of teens end up alone on the streets. In addition, Diane talks to one of the youth Kevin writes about.  You can listen to the show HERE.
