Abstract | Children who have been born into poverty or into at-risk circumstances are often considered "disposable" and not a societal priority. These youngsters have few advocates and limited successful options in life. In the city of Maracaibo, Venezuela, there is a large population of Amerindians who are called Guajiros. These indigenous people have darker skin, lower social status, and tend to be treated differently than the members. This article describes how a youthworker finds hidden strengths in a young homeless teen mother. (ERIC). |
