Who runs? A demographic profile of runaway youth in the United States.

Rebecca Polley Sanchez1, Martha W Waller, Jody M Greene.   

Abstract

Prevention and treatment programs for runaways have been hindered by an inadequate population profile. Using Add Health data to determine 12-month prevalence and demographic predictors of running away, we found that over 6% of youths reported running away. Running was predicted by biological gender, age, region, urbanicity, and family structure.
