Today, I saw Brenda blocks away sitting in front of a shopping mall in Saskatoon, Canada. She wasn't asking people for anything. She was just sitting. Panhandling is humiliating so often homeless people can't bring themselves to beg but just sit in public areas.
Brenda shares about sleeping outside and sprinklers going off getting all her stuff socked.
Brenda lost her job, couldn't get on social services, then lost her apartment.
Homelessness is horrible. Brenda should not have to live like this. This is another powerful interview that not only walks about the problems but sheds light on solutions. We need more housing, jobs, and health services.
A special thank goes to Team Invisible People
