His situation sounds so kafkaesque. So glad you you talked to home about his life.

Save this, can’t wait for part two.

Sometimes all we need is the listening ears and you offered that to him, great things Chris.

I loved this. Honestly, I learned a lot. About why it's so hard to get off the street. And stay off the street. I want to learn more. Especially about the healthcare and insurance piece. So crazy

Yeah me as well.

The combination of

Stuff getting stolen

can’t sleep at night

can’t get healthcare

and easy access to cheap drug

Makes for quite the quagmire for the down and out

Inspiring that you did this. Making me think about the conversations and connections that are possible when we let go of rules and societal norms that keep us separate.

100% man. I’m excited to continue to the dialogue with other people I meet on the street, and Luke too. I credit the VIEW conversations I did with AoA as a a contributing factor to how this conversation was possible
