Women and their children are the largest homeless group in the area, assistant professor of social work Deb DeWitz said. To read the full story click here.

Lots of it up here in Manitoba. The food banks are even being sought by schools for younger students. Plus, teachers are buying extra for their students. Not enough $$$ to pay bills, buy food.
