Karen says she feels invisible. At one time she had an important job and lots of social interaction, but now she says it's rare to have a conversation with another person. Earlier, Karen was parked near a public park and was cleaning out her car. She was feeling invisible and hadn't talked to anyone, then a dog came into the park and caught everyone's attention making Karen feel even more invisible.
I know each Invisible People story is different and each story relates to people differently. Karen's story messed me up because I remember like it was yesterday, when I was homeless, watching 'normal' people with their families play in a park. The feeling of depression was often overwhelming as I wondered if I'd ever have a normal life again. I am even getting emotional typing this.
Karen is happy she has a car and feels it will help her get a job. I'm happy there are places like Dreams for Change's safe parking program so people living in their car have a safe place to park and help getting back in to housing!
Very special thanks to Team Invisible People
