Sheltered
We’ve seen the shaggy beards, the dirty clothes, and vacant looks. Derelict campgrounds emerge overnight. Alcohol soaked beggars falter down sidewalks. We may feel empathy; we may feel scorn. We contemplate what actions or decisions render a decrepit alleyway as a residence for the night; and if such fate has befallen a person, how do they ever come back? SHELTERED follows Joe, a chronically homeless person fighting mental illness, on his path back to securing safety. With the help of Malik, a housing coordinator at Crossroads Men’s Emergency Shelter, Joe navigates the emotional minefields of social services, emergency room admissions, and personal isolation to once again find a life beyond homelessness. From chaos to relative stability Joe redefines success for himself, and provides an intricate new perspective on what we all need to remain intact as individuals. Breaking Rules Publishing
