Finding the Forgotten Engaging the Chronically Homeless By Tamara Wanner

About Me… Chronically homeless, mentally ill, drug addicted B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies, Education & Psychology, from Heritage University PATH Outreach Case Manager for CWCMH Yakima County Outreach Coordinator Professional Friend

Rules Have fun Learn stuff Ask questions at the end Let me know if you’re in the weeds

WHAT IS A HOME?

A hollowed out bush…? A tarp and some string…? A forgotten space in an abandoned building…? A space on a couch…? A collection of rooms…? A house that you rent…? The family estate that you own…?

A HOME IS… A place to keep my personal possessions. A place to invite friends and family. A place to return to at the end of the day. A place to meet my needs: food, shelter, rest. A place I can make my own. A place where I feel safe.
