THE PROBLEM
Record suffering threatens vulnerable men, women, and families across Central Florida
So many are suffering in Central Florida—because of abuse, addiction, financial loss—and they end up on our streets when there’s nowhere left to go. In fact, as many as 1 in 17 boys and girls right here in our area will be homeless this year!
