We’d like to take a moment to express our gratitude to CEO Jose M. Muñoz for sharing his own experience with homelessness as part of WTTW/Chicago PBS' impactful series, "Firsthand Talks: The Power of Housing." Jose’s journey reminds us why the work we do at La Casa Norte is so critical: to ensure no one faces homelessness alone. #LaCasaNorte #WTTW #MoreThanHousing #EndHomelessness #Chicago #FirsthandTalks
I recently had the honor of sharing my story on WTTW/Chicago PBS's Firsthand Talks, as part of a series that explored the intersection of homelessness and the migrant experience. Reflecting on my journey was an emotional and humbling opportunity, bringing back memories of the challenges my family and I faced growing up. It reminded me of the strength and resilience it takes to overcome such adversity, but also the incredible impact that a safe and stable home can have. Every time I tell my story, I’m reminded of why I’m so passionate about the work we do at La Casa Norte and how critical it is to ensure that no one, especially our youth, has to face the uncertainty of not knowing where they’ll sleep at night. I hope you consider watching it. #ThePowerOfHousing #YouthEmpowerment #EndHomelessness #ChicagoNonprofits #HousingForAll
