Homelessness is no longer Canada's dirty little secret. Activists like street nurse Cathy Crowe reveal our epidemic of homelessness to be an unnatural disaster, a disaster of our own making. This very moment, as you read these words, a quarter of a million Canadians are either homeless, or disgracefully underhoused. How can we bring relief? Why not ask some of the victims themselves? In this groundbreaking book, the author has done exactly that, inviting ten formerly homeless Canadians to tell their own stories in their own words. The people you will meet in these pages have fought for decent housing for themselves, and for others. Their life experiences will challenge your assumptions and arouse your indignation. Their words will call you to action.
