Throughout North America an annual Candlelight Vigil for homeless street youth will be held on Thursday, November 20th, 2008. It provides awareness and puts a face on the less talked about homeless population that in most cases is criminalized the most.
While the Federal Government makes it MANDATORY for local school boards to ensure homeless kids are able to attend school, Local Governments usually make it a crime for unaccompanied youth to receive medical care.
This year find out what's going on and light a few candles for the little ones.
