ALL THAT REGGIE WANTED WAS A PLACE TO CALL HOME...

BECAUSE OF HIS STORY, MANY YOUTH LIKE HIM ARE ABLE TO DO JUST THAT.

INTRODUCING REGGIE'S PLACE: A UNIQUE KIDS' BOOK FOR ALL AGES: Right in the heart of downtown Des Moines, Iowa, sits Reggie's Place, a street outreach center for homeless youth. Reggie Kelsey was an 18-year-old young man who aged out of foster care, and died just a few months later. Told from the perspective of a young girl who talks about her mom volunteering at Reggie's Place, this book sheds light on Reggie Kelsey and the homeless youth population, the challenges that led them to the streets, and the hope they're given to help them get off the streets and on their own two feet.
