The young people who Duluth's Life House serves - either the 150 currently in residence or the other 145 on the waiting list to get in - aren't just kids who don't want to observe curfew or make their beds.
In most instances, they've been forced out of their homes by violence, abuse, or poverty.
By the time they hit 21, though, Life House's Maude Dornfeld says "the lightbulb goes on" that they need an education to get off and stay off the streets.
And that's where the new Annex space, next to their building on West 1st Street comes in.
The ribbon cutting and open house for the Annex will be held this afternoon (October 22) from 3:30-5:30pm.
