What would you do if you had an addiction or mental health crisis that you were struggling with, you lost your job, went through bankruptcy, your home was foreclosed on, your apartment building raised the rent so that you could no longer afford to live there, or a natural disaster took your house from you? Any of these things could happen and if you had no family or community to turn to what would you do? It is easy to judge but until you have walked in that person’s shoes you do not truly understand the physical and emotional suffering that is homelessness.
