 This week’s theme: Unsheltered

Homelessness is a widespread issue affecting millions, often misunderstood and stigmatized as a personal failure instead of a societal problem. Unsheltered individuals face harsh conditions, including mental health and substance use challenges, leading to criminalization for minor offenses.

Life on the streets is difficult, with many suffering from chronic health issues and repeated trauma. It’s important to see unsheltered people as human beings who deserve empathy and support rather than judgment. The book “Unsheltered” by Peggy Willms & Dennis Pitocco highlights their stories, reminding us that they could be someone’s loved one and deserve our understanding.

Quote of the Day:

“Love is not patronizing and charity isn’t about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same — with charity you give love, so don’t just give money but reach out your hand instead.”
