In today’s rundown: The number of young parents who need housing in DC is on the rise. Plus, Gloria Steinem talks about the women’s movement and what she learned after turning 60.
— An increasing number of parents under the age of 24 in DC are in need of housing, reports The Washington Post. The DC Alliance of Youth Advocates released a study today that surveyed about 500 people between the ages of 12 and 24 who did not have stable housing arrangements. About half of those surveyed had children. According to the executive director of Covenant House, a Women’s Foundation Grantee Partner, most of the study participants had to leave more stable homes for economic reasons.
