Nowhere to Call Home: Volume Two: Photographs and Stories of People Experiencing Homelessness, Volume Two

This book continues where my first book left off-with forty photographs and stories of people experiencing homelessness. It is a part of my ongoing mission, begun with volume one, to change the general public's perception of those experiencing homelessness. So often, as I stated in my first book, they are viewed as subhuman creatures, or a lower order of being than human. Through my photographs and stories I am trying to humanize them, to help the general public see that, apart from the unfortunate circumstances in which these people find themselves, they are no different than you and I. I am heartened that, judging from the comments that my first book has received from people around the world, my work seems to be having this effect.

All royalties from this book will be given to Home Horizon: Transitional Support Program.
