Workshop: Friendship Place Speaker Bureau

Hear from two to three members of Friendship Place's Speakers' Bureau! The mission of our Speakers’ Bureau is to attach a human face to the word “homeless.” Most people know that word, but not what the word truly means. Most people equate homelessness with what they see on a city street, not knowing that they will never see most of the people who are experiencing homelessness, or know the reasons behind their homelessness. As speakers, we are able to inform and teach people about the realities of being “homeless.” By telling our stories, we can show that people who are experiencing homelessness come from all walks of life. Speakers will focus on the reality of homelessness in DC as well as the timely issue of COVID-19 related housing instability

The workshop will take place at this link (meeting ID: 120 162 1061) and the password is Nashman.
