InvisiblePeople.tv is hitting the road this summer, visiting 24 cities in 49 days to record (on video) the stories of people without homes. You can read more about this epic road trip here, including a list of cities and dates. If you're so inclined, please consider supporting this effort with a donation or other assistance. I just did.
InvisiblePeople.tv records the voices and stories of "homeless" people, in their own words and without a lot of editing or editorializing. I learn a lot every time I watch one of these videos, and I can't wait to see what they capture this summer.
Community Voice Mail (CVM) provides free voice mail boxes to 40,000 homeless and otherwise "phoneless" people seeking help from a network of 2,000 social service providers in 45 U.S. cities. Beyond voice mail, CVM is a network through which valuable information about jobs, housing, health care and other important resources are efficiently distributed to clients and their agencies. We're a nonprofit that has provided this service since 1993, and we want to bring it to your community.
