Deceived by the woman who raised him, 17-year-old George found himself stranded in San Francisco, where for two harrowing weeks he lived in a tree. "I felt safer," he tells reporter Chris Cuomo, "because on the ground a lot of people could tamper with you." Dakota's story has disturbing parallels-she says she was abandoned by her mother in a parking lot at age 16. Featuring additional profiles of teens Rebecca and June, both of whom left home because of trouble with parents and family situations, this ABC News program offers a look inside the crisis of homelessness among America's young people. Issues related to substance abuse and sexual orientation are examined, as is the impact of teen homelessness on education.
