There is a missing word, 'who' between 'adults' and 'are' in the second line that breaks the sentence but the critique is a direct response to the quoted passage. This might just be one of those conversations you gotta look a word or two up for.

V.A. Begins Drive to Put Homeless Veterans Into Guardianship
