Giving Hope
On any given night, more than 1,100 people are homeless in Rhode Island. For the past 30 years, the House of Hope has been trying to get those living in shelters or on the street into housing. This month, Jim Hummel finds out the nonprofit does it in a numberof ways: from street teams that go to where the homeless are staying - to a new mobile shower unit that has helped draw hundreds and connect them with much-needed medical services, and some into a place they can call their own.
