In this anthology of life narratives, we share our unique stories about becoming homeless, the things we experienced while we were homeless, and our hopes and dreams for the future. All of us have experienced some form of extreme trauma such as serious physical or sexual assault, witnessing severe injury or death, being involved in a life-threatening accident, or having combat experience in a war zone. Many of us have turned to alcohol and drugs to help blunt the effects of these experiences. It is our hope that the real story will help people come to understand and appreciate that being homeless is a condition, not a choice.
