Description
Caption: Children whose parents are on the road looking for work rely on themselves or their families to occupy their time. At top, Patty Welty, watches as her son, Brian, 15 months, plays in the room they share in America House, a Baton Rouge shelter. At left, Brian crawls on a bed while his mother watches. Chad Hatton, 6, above, plays with some of the few toys his parents are able to carry in the car they've crammed with all their belongings. The family is also staying in America House.
