How many abandoned children are there in America?
1.3 million
Believe it or not, there are over 20 million homeless or abandoned children in the world today. Statistics in the USA show the fact that currently there are 1.3 million homeless and runaway street kids, not counting children who were forced out of their homes, abandoned by the foster care system, or are part of a homeless family. Needless to say, the average age of a homeless person in the United States is nine. This is terrible. Studies show the fact that 1,000,000,000 of the world’s families live on less than a dollar a day.

I am chatting with a 9 year old girl who is some where in the USA east states alone in a house and her mother has not returned in 4 days. I have asked her to call 911 but that does not seem to work; maybe a dead zone for phone coverage. Her name is Claire Martens. I asked her to put an SOS sign on the street which she has done. I do not think she has much food in the house. please advise. thanks
