Sacred Shelter: Thirteen Journeys of Homelessness and Healing

Abstract

The first part of this guide consists of six questions for personal reflection. The questions were written by George Horton, who runs the Education Outreach Program, the original and longestrunning life skills empowerment program, sponsored by New York Catholic Charities. The questions encourage readers to think about how the life stories in Sacred Shelter have changed or enriched their perspectives about homelessness and related traumas, and they encourage readers to think about how the stories have changed or enriched their perspectives of themselves and people they know.
