One of every 50 American children experiences homelessness, according to a new report that says most states have inadequate plans to address the worsening and often-overlooked problem.

According to the report released last month by the National Center on Family Homelessness, homeless children have poor health, emotional problems and low graduation rates, the study found.

"The consequences to our society will play out for decades. As we bail out the rest of our nation, it is also time to come to their aid."
