Sam was a member of New York City's Department of Homeless Services team that worked to design and manage programs that reduced street homelessness by 60%.

Lloyd Pierce commented 2016-07-07 14:40:42 -0700Interesting article J, definitely about awareness….Bring from cali, everytime we come through the Bay, always saddened to hear others comment about how they always see homelessness stand out more in SF than in other major cities. It’s relative I know, but I’m glad to know there is a long term solution being worked on from a realistic and perception standpoint.
