Project: Research project

Project Details

Description

This is a result of an undergraduate course project. After learning about
the diverse processes that can lead to homelessness and talking to
homeless people in Norman, we believe that it is essential to create a
self-sustaining resource that can continue to grow and build on the local
communities in Norman.
A group of students from Dr. Elaine Hsieh’s COMM 4413 Issues in Health
Communication class created this book. We welcome you to join our
journey to:
• Listen to the voices and stories of these invisible people in our
community
• Learn about the differ pathways and perspectives of homelessness
• Find ways to support these invisible people in our community
