Humanizing Homelessness with Morgan Handley & Valerie Salas

I love these people! Come learn about Street Outreach and how you can get involved. When I did my Lenten Journey in 2012 (www.40daysofhaven.com) I thought I learned a lot about homelessness. However, these amazing women teach me so much more about the importance of compassion and empathy when working with our street friends. Watch the video below and check out this article about Morgan & Valerie.
