ChrisTiana ObeySumner, Michelle Jenkins and Katie Wilson have an honest and powerful conversation about their experience, and offer insight on barriers that drive someone into homelessness and keeps them there. With the intention to build a holistic, compassionate and humanistic point of view, their conversation challenges the stereotypes often associated to being homeless. They advocate for an individual and political approach that focuses on prevention versus intervention. They offer their wisdom on how people can change their cultural mindset. So when faced with homelessness, do not ask, “How did this person fail?” but rather, “How has society failed this person?”
