  • Guatemalan youth hang out on a corner in Zona 8 of Guatemala City, Guatemala on Monday, June 13, 2005. Many of "los niños de la calle,"--the children of the streets--are addicted to paint thinner, soaking balls of cloth with it and holding the toxic rags to their mouths. The children and young adults prefer solvent to glue because it is cheaper and helps them forget their hunger pains and cold. Carlos Toledo, director and founder of Nuestros Derechos--Our Rights- a Guatemalan non-governmental organization that tries to help the children off the streets and into society, said there are about 10,000 children living without homes or stable lives in Guatemala. "These children are illegal in their own country," Toledo said, since most have no legal documentation and are not recognized as existing by the government.

  • Sandra Guamux, 21, sits with her five-month-old son, Alfredo, at an abandoned gas station in Zone 4 of Guatemala City, Guatemala. About 20 otherwise homeless people live inside the station, and most are addicted to huffing paint thinner to numb the cold and their hunger pains. Guamux said a baby was stolen from her five days after it was born last year, and she is convinced the baby went into an illegal adoption system. She added that the police told her they would not investigate the situation since she had no photograph of the child.
