A (partial) media recap of the WE ARE ALL HOMELESS cross country trip!





















We were blessed to get SO much attention during our cross country trip, beginning in Seattle and lasting pretty much throughout our travels. There are still at least 4 stories in progress as this is being written, but below are some of the links to stories of the project. Many thanks to all the wonderful reporters that spent time with us buying signs in cities across the country, and to Adrienne, who helped us with PR along the way. The team is hard at work on the documentary and the upcoming exhibit, so stay tuned, and thanks as always for your support and encouragement!
