Well, since we were late in reminding folks about Thursday morning's 9:15 council meeting about the Fulton Corridor and Downtown Neighborhood Plan (still may be time to head down), we thought we'd make it up by reminding you about the "Homelessness In Fresno" event happening tonight.
All the details can be found below, looks like a interesting way to come at this problem:
The St. Paul Newman Center Peace and Justice Ministry present Homelessness in Fresno: The Art, the Experience, the Solution, Thursday, January 28, 2010.
The free event will include two short films, Homeless Dog and Hotel Fresno by Teresa Flores and Dixie Salazar, along with a photographic exhibition of Salazar’s visit to the Fresno homeless encampments. Following the films, there will be a discussion with members of Fresno’s homeless community and a report on the Kincaid Community Center for the Homeless by Mike Rhodes, publisher of the Community Alliance. The event will be concluded with a discussion on the city and county’s 10-year plan to end homelessness with Gregory Barfield, the City of Fresno Homelessness Prevention and Policy Manager.
