Forgotten Children and the Urgent Need for a Caring Economy

In the New York Times Article Craig Blankenhorn states:

SADLY for the children across America who are homeless today, neither presidential campaign is expected to pay much attention to them, with big policy speeches or new ideas about improving their situation.

A nation that fails to care for its future generations will pay dearly for this failure in global competitiveness. Right now millions of children -- 1.6 million -- are already paying a terrible price in homelessness and all the suffering and deprivation that goes with it. Yet, as this important article notes, we are hearing nothing about them in the current presidential campaign. Let's work together to change this!
