Just Two Paychecks Away
“Homelessness isn’t just about housing but everything else. There are often mental health issues, a high rate of addiction or returning from incarceration. They’ve lost their jobs or there is no family support. People don’t realize many of us are just 2 paychecks away from homelessness.”
Patricia Marks

I spent the morning talking to the director of a county homeless program. Having grown up in Philadelphia, I saw homelessness everywhere. But here, in this rural part of the world, it is hidden. People live in tents, tucked away in the woods. They come to Meeting Grounds in the morning for a bowl of cereal and a shower. They’re given a locker to store their things and then they leave for the rest of the day, only to return tomorrow.
