Midwest Newsroom reporting projects

According to the latest Housing and Urban Development data that came out at the beginning of this year, homelessness is up by 18 percent in America.

Recently, Midwest Newsroom has been working on a multi-part series called Unhoused/Unschooled. KSMU's Gregory Holman interviewed Midwest Newsroom reporter Kavahn Mansouri on how the taxpayer-funded system struggles to care for vulnerable kids, especially in rural communities.
