This is sad and we should do what we can to help our fellow students. The State of Florida has one of the largest population of homeless children and youth and on a 2015 report 71,446 students were identify as homeless during the 3013-2014 school year. More than 1.6 million children living in the United States are homeless (Institute for Children Poverty and Homelessness, 2014) and over 16 million live below the poverty line.

These numbers are scary. In 1987 president Ronald Reagon signed The Homeless Assistance Act for homeless students to have access to a free education. This still give these students challenges to be able to do well in school expressionly if they are oing to be living in cars.
