On the News; the TV News! (WTAP)

Jim Lopreste, with the Runaway and Homeless Youth Basic Center Program was on a news clip this week (I will try to link with the clip). As well as one of our youth in the TLP program. We were hoping to generate some responses to our need for host homes, and we received 5 calls (at least!) the next day after the story. This kept Jim and Chris hoping as well as helping advocate for a youth in the program as he tried to make arrangements to take a bus back home. Lauren, at WTAP did a great job with the story, she shows her interest and commitment to issues like this with her work. Check it out (if I can't link it to this blog!!) It ran Thursday evening on the 6 and 11 news.
