At Least 6,000 Homeless Minors in the Netherlands


Federatie Opvang says that there are at least 6,000 homeless minors in the Netherlands. This organization, which deals with outreach to the homeless, states that this number concerns only those youngsters which have registered with them. They think that this is only the tip of the iceberg. They add that the Ministry for Youth and Family Affairs is not making progress with plans for how to deal with this problem, and that the number of homeless youngsters is increasing.
