PLEASE MEET LISA:
All of us at Facing Homelessness are thrilled to welcome Lisa Boyd to our staff and proudly introduce her as our already loved super-smart accountant!
As Facing Homelessness grows to meet this community's desire for creative compassionate solutions, we know it is most important to meet your faith in us with a staff dedicated to the mission and ready to honor your support with hard work, professionalism and genuine care.
Lisa is all of that and more and we are so excited to have her helping us move forward!! Here is a little bit of what she wanted to share with all of you:
"Growing up in Seattle, I have seen the city change in many ways. In my lifetime, homelessness moved from being something I wasn’t aware of, to one of the top issues impacting our community. Over this time, I have heard commentary from friends, family, and media outlets sharing their view on the issues and solutions. Over the last couple of years, I have become more open and curious to what is really going on, and in doing so have discovered the humanity at the heart of this issue. Everything I had heard talked about the ‘other,’ but people experiencing homelessness are just like all people, human beings doing the best they can with what they have. It easily could have been me if I hadn’t had support through trying times. It is this humanizing that Facing Homelessness does, which is so important in educating people that homelessness is complex, and in the end, people are still people no matter where they live or what they have."
We are so very grateful to have Lisa join us in our mission to bring everyone into the solution for ending homelessness!
