Enjoy a special presentation by former NY Times reporter and author Tina Kelley as she shares her inspiration and dedication to helping our country's homeless youth. Her latest book, "Almost Home: Helping Kids Move from Homelessness to Hope" (Wiley), which she co-authored with Covenant House president Kevin Ryan, tells the moving stories of six remarkable young people from across the United States and Canada as they confront life alone on the streets. The book shares a snapshot of a larger story in which an estimated 1.6 million young people run away or are kicked out of their homes each year in the U.S. and Canada. Read more about the book here
