Woodwynn Farms and the Homeless

homeless and not wanting to be there

Life without a Warranty

Life can take many twists and turns and although we all like to think we are immune to the potential hazards our society can dish out, too many people these days are losing their security and everything they thought they had. In Montreal over 30,000 people are homeless, Toronto the number is 5,000, in Vancouver over 2,700 homeless and in Victoria almost 2,000. In the USA over 4 million people are homeless and 1.8 million of them are children.   

A Solution 

The Woodwynn Farm story

Richard has traded places with a homeless man

Woodwynn Farms is a therapeutic community and this is their journey helping the homeless get off the street and being re-trained in a farm environment.

This is a story that needs to be seen, shared and helped to succeed. I believe there should be therapeutic comunities like this one outside of every major city in around the world to support those who need it.

This is not the first community of it's kind but it's one of the first in North America and it's being held up by NIMBYs ; that is people who are saying "Not In My Back Yard".

In this day and age where the homeless and poverty situation is out of control and not getting any better solutions that look at the long term life changing affects healing and proper support and rehabilitation can have need to be supported for our world to move forward.
