Boston's "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" Gives Homeless Youth Shelter from Winter's Storms

It's been a frigid, unforgiving winter, but sometimes, that doesn't matter if you're a young person in an unsafe situation and feel you need to get away, quick. Instead of leaving them on the streets to suffer in the elements, "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" is working overtime to make sure homeless, at-risk, and runaway youth have a secure, warm place to stay. Executive Director Elisabeth Jackson returns to the show this week to talk about her team's efforts on the front lines and why so many youth find themselves without a safe place to go.
