Last week, we made a Mind Map of Homelessness. We brainstormed all of the different reasons someone might become homeless, then we connected them to show how it can become a downward spiral.
In partners, we then looked at different case studies and mapped what happened to those people (ex: someone who lost a spouse, might be overcome with grief and turn to substance abuse as a way to numb the pain. That could lead to them losing their job, which means they won't be able to pay their rent and they might get evicted).
In February, we'll be working in partners to create an animation about homelessness that we'll share at the Spring Celebration in April.
