Product Description
In this insightful and revealing book, the author shows how we can break the cycle of poverty and disadvantage and change the odds for children at risk.

In a highly readable style, Neuman highlights programs that are making a difference in children's lives across the country, weaving together narratives that tell a compelling story of hope and promise for our most disadvantaged children.
