Comment by Chris Highland on October 20, 2010 at 9:30pm: I am currently the manager of two nice homes for low-income seniors in Marin County, CA. Recently I was the director of a rotating emergency shelter. For many years I served as an interfaith chaplain with people in jails and on the streets. So, I am glad to interact with those working collaboratively toward real solutions to housing. By the way, my new book contains seventy stories from those years with homeseekers: My Address is a River: A Place to Belong, Closer to Home. Thanks for the group.

Comment by Dave Baldwin on March 5, 2010 at 7:35am: I am the Pastor of Ministries in a church in the Baltimore/D.C. area. We are involved in working with the homeless, so would be interested in what this group is about.
Blessings,
Dave
