Homelessness

With winter approaching and the predicted drop in temperatures, homelessness once again confronts us with an uncomfortable reality that we too often prefer to ignore. People living on the streets don't just need blankets or hot food; they need society to stop pointing the finger at them. We persist in simplistic prejudices to ease our consciences, but it's time to educate, to listen before we judge, and to offer a vote of confidence to build more supportive and inclusive communities.
