Steven Cooper has a 1998 Emmy, 5 Associated Press Awards and one Edward R. Murrow Award to prove he gets the job done! His recent report on the homeless in Central Florida is shocking to say the least: 8,000 homeless, 30% are children, and 1,400 Vets in Central Florida alone. He presented the matter of being homeless by putting not only a face to this problem but how it could happen to anyone.
