Last week I participated in an event at Sacramento City College to benefit the growing homeless population.  The College hosted Homeless Connect, where they could get services from a number of providers including medical, dental and psychological.

With the help of Paul Estabrook, Director of Photography at SCC, Louise Mitchell (fellow student), and David Jayne, Art Director for the Sacramento News and Review, we created portraits of 21 people who represented a wide variety of homeless situations.  Everything from the stereotypical to individuals who looked like accountants in denial of their own situation.  

The photos will be part of the Cover story for next week's issue of SN&R.  It will be on Sacramento newsstands on the 11th.
