About Life on the Streets
(scroll down to see what they have to say) 

 
Hollywood. That's the place to be. That's where everything's happening. But really, this is the place to forget.. Forget inside why things are happening while growing up. I was an unwanted child. Trying to get away from all that, you turn to the streets where friends make you feel like you belong ... even if it's just an act.

Los Angeles Youth Network is the best choice I ever made ... they are my true family. They've given me love, respect, and most of all they believe in me. They helped me get through the pain and without them I don't think I would've accomplished much.

I dropped out of school in the 9th grade to live the street life - gang banging, selling drugs and robbing people. All I really want is to survive and stay alive to see another day.
