The primary focus for this report is provided by 5 general questions: What is the size of the runaway and street youth population? What are the demographic characteristics of these young people? What are the antecedents to running and becoming a street kid? What are the consequences of participating in street life and how does a young person get off the streets? and, What services are directed at these young people in the areas of education, health, criminal justice and social services and what gaps or overlaps exist in these services. The researchers provide an extensive review of the literature on street youth and runaways followed by a detailed overview of the most recent Canadian research which focuses specifically on the design decisions adopted in these studies. Next, a conceptual model and methodological strategies are developed. Finally, the results of a pilot study (the Calgary Experience) that incorporated much of the information garnered in previous sections are presented.

In cities across North America, teenage runaways are struggling to stay alive. Some don't make it to adulthood. Some do, but their lives rarely rise above the despair that brought them to the streets in the first place. A few manage to beat the street, to get their lives back on track. In this disturbing account Marlene Webber draws on extensive interviews with these kids to explore the realities of street life, its attraction, and its consequences. Street kids like to project an image of themselves as free-wheeling rebels who relish life on the wild side. All brashness and bombast, they strut around inner cities panhandling, posturing, and prostituting themselves. Labelled society's bad boys and girls, they often live up to their image. But as sixteen-year-old Eugene tells us, the street forces bravado on homeless adolescents, 'but underneath, a lot of kids are plenty scared.' Eugene is only one of many street kids who talked to Webber in major cities across Canada. She lets her subjects tell their own stories; their voices are sometimes brave, sometimes bitter, often heartbreaking. Webber cuts a comprehensible path through the tangle of forces, including family breakdown and social-service failure, that accelerate the tragedy of Canada's runaways. She suggests measures that might help more of them beat the streets.
