Marcia Hamilton+FollowWhy most people in Denver don’t choose homelessnessBlankets aren’t just for comfort—they’re survival tools for people like Holly Norris, who’s spent over a decade living outside in Denver. Her story shatters the myth that homelessness is a choice. According to the latest data, over 94% of people experiencing homelessness in Denver didn’t choose this life. Many, like Norris, face impossible barriers: unaffordable housing, lack of resources, and city ordinances that push them from place to place. Even when help is offered, there often aren’t enough beds or safe places to go. What do you think needs to change to truly support our neighbors without homes? #Safety #Denver #Homelessness00Share
