In this issue we share Adrian’s story and how, despite a successful career in business, he found himself sleeping in his car. Read how Visionwest walked alongside him on his journey toward stability and hope.

We also explore the complexities of supporting people experiencing homelessness and the vital role empathy plays in creating meaningful change.
