The Daybreak Grand Opening and Ribbon cutting was a dawning for us.  It is the first day of the shift from construction being the main focus to programing and services being as it should be the focus of our ministry.  The Depaul members from USA and International were speechless when they walked in and saw the transformation to the building.  We know this is just the beginning…in time they will be awestruck at the transformation of people and their lives.

Depaul USA, working with One Step Away, Bethesda Project, and Project HOME in a unique cross-agency collaboration, sponsored the festival on October 16th. It was standing room only at the Painted Bride Art Center in Philadelphia  where over two hundred people attended to watch films cutting through stereotypes about homelessness. Films portrayed men, women, teenagers, a college graduate and families experiencing homelessness.
