| Abstract | Never sure where they are going to spend the night or when their next meal is coming, school is usually the last thing on the minds of children who are homeless. It is the responsibility of homeless education counselors to help these children and their families cope with their daily struggles including housing, transportations and medical issues. But with the number of homeless students in the Los Angeles Unified School District swelling more than 35 percent in the past year to 13,521 students, the district and the mere five homeless education counselors assigned to these cases are struggling to keep up in assisting the homeless population in the nation 's second largest school district. |
