#thisishomelessness Day 3, Homeless Advocates Open New Center for Youth

After three days, out and about in downtown Reno, Neva, sleeping by the river on cold rocks, walking around with heavy backpacks and garbage bags, reaching out and making connections, homeless advocates, (including Lynette Eddy, in background of first picture with glasses, and Brian Eddy in foreground), returned to the Eddy House, where a $50,000 check was awaiting them, along with other donors, community advocates, the curious and lots of hugs. The center will soon be open seven days a week, filling gaps and providing safety, guidance, resources, and help for the most vulnerable population out on the streets.
