Amy is only 22, and she is homeless. I met Amy in Kelowna, British Columbia, right outside a homeless feeding. If it wasn’t for the location, and seeing her eating at a table with other homeless people, I would have never known she was homeless, neither would you.<\/p>\n
When I asked Amy what homeless is like she said “it sucks” – it does!<\/p>\n
This is a hard interview to watch. Amy is a gorgeous, young girl, but you can hear the hopelessness in her voice.<\/p>\n
Amy does not feel she has much of a future. We can change that – WE MUST CHANGE THAT! There is a saying that today’s youth are tomorrow’s future. Trouble is, homeless youth, along with homeless seniors, may be the fastest growing demographics of poverty and homelessness in many communities.<\/p>\n
What are you going to do about the Amy’s in your neighborhood?<\/p>\n
