Sanders - fed money coming for Vt. teens

Senator Bernie Sanders announced yesterday that $523,000 has been granted to Vermont to keep at-risk teens out of the state's criminal justice system. The money will go to organizations that offer counseling and training to get teens on their feet, and out of trouble. Sanders said the teens aren't getting the attention they need, especially in a recession with families who don't have a whole lot of money.
