CHANGE IS ONLY REAL IF IT HAS BECOME HABITUAL.

Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant.

There are many street people who are talented in art. With changes in life circumstances they did not get to pursue their passion. We will encourage them to get back in their passion and create artwork for us to share with you. Please check back often to see their new works. Thanks.

It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

WHAT DOES HOMELESSNESS IN JACKSON COUNTY LOOK LIKE?
In Jackson County the most prevalent face of homelessness is that of a child. Of the 3793 homeless individuals who were counted on January 27th: 1465 of them were homeless children in families; there were another 46 unaccompanied youth under the age of 18. These 46 children are but a small number of what we know to represent the vast numbers of children who were not counted on that day.
