Reflection:

This project has been more impactful than I ever imagined it could be. I have learned from high-level experts who have inspired me to continue to work on my project and to have hope for the future. I have learned a lot of important new information and have changed my views on how I approach homelessness as well by correcting my wrong assumptions about homelessness and the ways of approaching people experiencing homelessness. This project has been extremely educational and impactful for me. I hope to continue to make an impact with this project going forward.

Future Goal

Continuing to expand my project to do more interviews outside of IP10 to spread knowledge and educate others about homelessness. I also plan to continue to change the narratives about homelessness by applying the tools I have learned in my IP10 project. Pursuing smiling and acknowledging as ways to help change the homeless crisis.
