Summary:

There may be almost three million people in the United States--men, women, and saddest of all, children--who have nothing to call their own. Homelessness is a problem for all Americans, and Elliott calls all of us--including the homeless themselves--to responsibility and to a setting aside of blame in order that we may work together in hope for change.
