I really hope Kirsten Kelly and Anne de Mare meet their Kickstarter goal, because I would love to view the full documentary as research for my next Street Stories novel. My character Booker T. Brooks is also struggling to stay in school, graduate, and build a future, as so many kids on the street are today.

The Homestretch follows three homeless teens as they fight to stay in school, graduate, and build a future. Each of these ambitious teenagers – Kasey, Anthony and Roque – will surprise, inspire, and challenge audiences to rethink stereotypes of homelessness as they work to complete their education while facing the trauma of being alone and abandoned at an early age.
