Yesterday I met with a 38 year old mother of a 4 month old baby. She was staying with friends and just became homeless because they received an eviction notice. She didn’t have anywhere to go with her baby when she came to HPP and only had a diaper bag full of things for the baby.

Nina and friends told me story about a mom that usually comes to them on Mondays. She has a young child, as well as a 6 month old baby boy.
