Kids on their way to being homeless.

Jason is 19, still living with his mom, does any kind of drugs he can find.
Mom wants him to find a place of his own, Jason gets angry, and steals money out of moms purse again. Instead looking for a job, Jason hangs out with his friends and shop-lifts.
He spends all of the money he gets on drugs and alcohol.
Does Jason have a future?
Everyone has a future.
But in order to have a safe and happy future, Jason needs to start working on the present. And he'll need the support of his friends and family to make the right changes. He needs to know that there's an alternative to drugs, that there are solutions to whatever the problems are that are making him angry.
Everyone has a future, but it can take a long time to get there if you get stuck in the present.
