Her name is Gwendolyn Ross, but at Covenant House, a homeless shelter for young adults in Newark, she's just "Mama Gwen." For the young men and women who live at Covenant House, Mama Gwen isn't just a program specialist, she's a provider, a cheerleader, a listener, a disciplinarian. In short, a mom. Well before dawn she's in their bedrooms, gently waking them up as any mother would. And long after they leave, she still has their pictures on her wall. (Video by Nyier Abdou/The Star-Ledger)
