Original Toronto Star caption: Homeless family: The Santos family thought they were coming to a better life when they fled El Salvador in September. But their chances of starting anew have been delayed because they can't find a place to live. Without a home; they cannot take English lessons. Landlords don't want immigrants or refugees or people supported by a government allowance; says a Quaker friend.
