Penmen joined The Chandler Center to explore the topic of shelter and homelessness. Our goal for this session was for participants to leave with a deeper understanding of the root causes of homelessness in the U.S. On a given night in 2019, the number of people experiencing homelessness in the U.S. was 567,715. Who does this issue impact? Are there trends to take note of?
