DID YOU KNOW  

"Once in a while, the eyes of the poor are peering at us, captured through a photographer's lens. We can see them. But do we really see them?"

                                                    ~ Norman Solomon

Have you ever heard the homeless referred to as the "Invisible Poor"?

 What exactly does that mean? 

For this activity, you will use an activity from the New York Times Learning Network called "Shedding the Light on an Invisible Problem" to increase your awareness of the Invisible Poor. Your will use an article called To Be Young and Homeless as a basis for this activity. Please turn on the vocabulary tool (at the top of the article) so you can check any unfamiliar words that you come across.
