When We Walk By: Forgotten Humanity, Broken Systems and the Role We Can Each Play in Ending Homelessness
Authors Kevin F. Adler and Donald W. Burnes 
It examines the intersectional systems and reasons our neighbors become housing insecure. Through current statistics and interviews with unhoused neighbors, the authors bring to life thought-provoking concepts, deeper insights, and practical solutions. Using key takeaways at the end of each chapter, it is an easy book to discuss. 

If anyone wants to be added to the email communications going forward, they simply need to email me at socialjusticeatfcc@gmail.com
This would give them updates on:
  • information on both housing and homelessness - mostly community and state-level
  • meetings
  • ways to participate in further local discussions
  • legislative information
Our library has the book.
