World Homeless Day is a global collaborative effort that is held on October 10 every year. The day is there to help create change and make a difference in the lives of people who are experiencing homelessness. Please remember: Homelessness does not describe a type of person, but a housing situation. It’s a state – not a trait! #homelessnessawareness #endhomelessness
