Homelessness on the Rise in America


Number of homeless Americans rising


In 2010, US President, Barack Obama promised to end homelessness for children within a decade.

Three years later, the number of families living on America's streets is on the rise.

Many people blame the state of the economy, but other factors are making the problem worse.
