Chris says Skid Row is a trap. Lots of people come to Skid Row for the resources yet easily get caught up in the madness of the streets. Once a person gets seduced by Skid Row’s darker side, more often than not, their life is destroyed.<\/p>\n
Ten years ago Chris got into some trouble in his hometown and jumped on a bus to Los Angeles. He says he only had to walk two blocks before he got caught up with the wrong crowd – again, and that lasted right up until he went into the Los Angeles Mission.<\/p>\n
Chris is one of the lucky ones. He now has ten months sober and has dreams of becoming a barber or a counselor helping others.<\/p>\n
