“Nothing changes in the life of a homeless person unless you slow down and take the time to earn trust and develop a lasting relationship. Consistency and presence are essential. Have a coffee, play cards, share bits of yourself. Never judge. Remember that people have lived through hell and listen carefully to their stories.”

“Health care for the disenfranchised is predicated upon a one-to-one relationship made possible only by the investment of time and by a willingness to venture beyond offices and exam rooms to unfamiliar turf.”
