The Lasting Effects of Homelessness
The Lasting Effects of Homelessness – Trauma, Mental Health & Beyond
Join us for an important insight into the lived experience of homelessness. Educator, speaker and writer Matt Vapor will share his personal story of experiencing homelessness, offering a candid and personal account of what it was like to navigate life without a secure place to call home.
Matt will explore the realities of homelessness beyond what we see on the surface, reflecting on the mental, emotional and physical challenges he experienced. Drawing on his personal experience and his work as an educator and advocate, Matt will also look beyond the individual to examine the broader social and systemic factors that contribute to homelessness and make it such a persistent and complex issue.
