The resident's idea, as submitted

The idea

The project idea would be for sheltering the homeless men and women in the Roxbury, MA area. Discussing issues about getting a bed, shower, food to eat such as: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Healthy behavior and drug prevention.

Who it helps and why

I think that being able to get access in a stable housing condition with an advocate, housing counselor and case manager. I think that getting to know some of these people can connect with organization that include social and racial equity in their activities.
