Kenya: Street kids struggle for survival in Kenya

➡ From Child Welfare Information Gateway NJ:

Kenya: Street kids struggle for survival in Kenya
Agence-France Presse – April 14, 2016
One estimate, by the Consortium of Street Children (CSC), an international charity, suggests the number of street children could be as high as between 250,000 and 300,000 throughout Kenya, including 60,000 in Nairobi alone. Some children are pushed onto the street following the death of parents — sometimes due to HIV/AIDS — or after running away from violence at home. Others live on the street simply because their families are too poor to look after them.
