Book Description
Street outreach workers comb public places such as parks, vacant lots, and abandoned waterfronts to search for young people who are living out in public spaces, if not always in the public eye. Street Kids opens a window to the largely hidden world of street youth, drawing on their detailed and compelling narratives to give new insight into the experiences of youth homelessness and youth outreach. Kristina Gibson argues that the enforcement of quality of life ordinances in New York City has spurred hyper-mobility amongst the city’s street youth population and has serious implications for social work with homeless youth. Youth in motion have become socially invisible and marginalized from public spaces where social workers traditionally contact them, jeopardizing their access to the already limited opportunities to escape street life. The culmination of a multi-year ethnographic investigation into the lives of street outreach workers and ‘their kids’ on the streets of New York City, Street Kids illustrates the critical role that public space regulations and policing play in shaping the experience of youth homelessness and the effectiveness of street outreach.

Book Description
Get off the BUS was a wakeup call for me to realize that no matter what you as a human being may be facing in your life you have to every now and again slow down and re-evaluate where u are heading. And if you find yourself going in circles or just riding life daily routines without any of the goals you set being achieved than thats when you get off the bus. The bull shit undermining your stride to successes. Now the bus can represent anything thats blocking you from where you want to be in life. It took me forty one years to realize my bus and yes I had a few in the form of family friends and habits. That I do still deal with today. However unlike then I know who these people are and Im aware of the traps they set to hold me down. Where they were so I would be unsuccessful too. Or the ones who keep you close to them just to monitor your growth. Well Im here to tell you there is no man holding you back as they once use to say back in the days of the old. I was shot in the back in the early nineties and later diagnose as Benign Bi- Polar and having Post traumatic stress disorder. I thought my life was over because all my family did to me was use me. And once the jobs were done they then tried to degrade me. It took me thirty years to realize they were my Bus. Ill always love them but only now it will be from afar. Now being able to see my obstacles. I now feel the courage to push on towards my goals. First starting with the completion of this book. this book is the first of many to come we are a strong nation where the sky is the limit. All you have to do is be in the game of life in order to win (in your goals). Its time to recognize your bus and the next time you see your stop dont let that negative friend, family, member not even youself stop you from getting off your bull shit. Dont let people stop you from being the happiest person that you want to be in life. Thank you again and god bless you all..Peace.
