I am pleased to say that one of my short films, “Nowhere to Go” will be screened with discussion to follow on MLK day, January 17 at Bridges Outreach in Summit, NJ at 11:00 am. “Nowhere to Go” highlights the need for, and barriers to safe, stable housing. Through testimonies of impassioned advocates and previously incarcerated individuals, the film presents the options of housing including the streets, shelters, transitional living facilities, family homes, and permanent supportive housing. The film also provides urgent and critical insight into how we can provide the best supportive structure possible to ensure that homelessness can reduced and eradicated. Bridges Outreach was started by a suburban couple, who with the help of 1500 volunteers provides outreach by delivering nutritious bagged breakfasts and lunches, clothing and toiletries to people in need in the NY metropolitan area. “Nowhere to Go” is part of a short film series about formerly incarcerated individuals produced for American Friends Service Committee.
