Good for you Alei!
I worked in welfare for over 25 years,part of my job was dealing with homeless kids.
A major problem I had : Teens tend to be 'minimal responders'; it can be like pulling teeth to get them to talk to you. Lots of possible reasons. Biggies include;teens tend not to trust adults, and they are not accustomed to an adult actually LISTENING to them.
Kudos and every success in your new job. I think you have the potential to make a huge positive difference in the kids' lives.
