A Cry for Help is a vivid and irrefutable picture of the homeless in America, told in their own words.

(Housing Enterprise for the Less Privileged). Noted child psychiatrist and Pulitzer Prizewinning author Dr. Robert Coles offers a thoughtful preface about the painful effects of homelessness on a child's soul.
