PURCHASE THE CHILDREN'S BOOK "ARE WE HOME YET?" ON AMAZON!

Children who are homeless don't advertise their plight. They cover it up, often leaving teachers and counselors wondering why such a good student isn't keeping up in class. In “Are We Home Yet?”, readers go inside of a homeless child's life to learn about his thoughts, feelings, fears and concerns. But the book does more than share details about a child's difficult journey. It also shows the reader how, despite one's tough circumstances, he or she can learn to cope in healthy ways. “This story shares the perspective of children who are experiencing homelessness. It addresses the whole range of emotions, from anger and embarrassment to calm and hope. It encourages children to seek support through a difficult time. It definitely would be a needed addition to any school counselor's bookshelf!” -Sharon Stiefel, MA, NCSC.
