Become an Advocate

There are many ways to advocate for our homeless neighbors. Becoming educated about the complexities of homelessness and poverty is a great first step. Sharing this knowledge with family members and friends helps to build understanding and empathy toward those in need. As you know, there are many negative stereotypes about individuals who are homeless. Together, we can have compassionate conversations about the myriad of circumstances that contribute to homelessness and about the hope we have for a better tomorrow.

“People who are homeless are not social inadequates. They are people without homes.”
