There is a growing population of homeless
and runaway youth among Asians in the Twin Cities. Unfortunately, there are not enough shelters to accommodate
these numbers, and more importantly, there are no shelters that accommodate the cultural needs of the Asian
population. Please help us serve these youth by completing this short survey to provide your feedback about the
needs of our youth. |
