Day Center, Day Center, Day Center
MY friend Jordan Green writes about “Why Greensboro Needs A Homeless Day Center,” at the YES! Weekly blog. I talked about it briefly at Council last night. It came up in a discussion with a homeless friend who’s been “moved along” by UNCG PD and GPD more than a few times lately. It comes up a whole lot in discussions with folks on the street. I’m starting to sound like a broken record: “Day center, day center, day center.” And I’m not the only one talking about it. Maybe if enough of us say it… (You, too.)
Previously: In February 2006, YES! Weekly reporter Amy Kingsley interviewed me and Liz Seymour (from Greensboro Food Not Bombs) about the need for a day center for the homeless in Greensboro. The article, “Homeless find day shelter where they can,” is no longer available online.
