Join us on Monday, October 21st, 6:30 pm at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland, CA to catch a free screening of "Beyond the Bridge: A Solution to Homelessness" from A Bigger Vision Films. We are proud to share that our very own Marc Dones, BHHI Policy Director, makes an appearance in the film.
ABOUT THE FILM
The team at A Bigger Vision Films noticed that most documentaries on homelessness offer few solutions, so they set out to create BEYOND THE BRIDGE, an ambitious documentary film about solutions to homelessness. The film crew drove over 40,000 miles to visit 12 cities and dozens of service providers, those with lived experience and policy makers to answer this question: How can this country solve homelessness in a comprehensive way?
The answer: Working with deep coordination — a single homelessness response systems plan based on the principles of Housing First with community buy-in from law enforcement, judicial systems, business communities, service providers, volunteers, and leadership from the mayor and county executive, all working from the same page.
