HONORABLE MENTIONS
There it was–a building to go to. Inside was staff, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Showers to bathe and beds to sleep in like the story of «Madeline.» The building was there, available for homeless service all year round. It was not a permanent home but a temporary place. To get up and shower, have breakfast, go run errands such as housing, work, and school searches. To get a bed assigned, a place to take a shower before bed, sleep all night until dawn and start another day. Play games. I was not so homeless until I got my place.
