Helping the Homeless in our Community - October 25, 2010

Santa Clara County is the 19th wealthiest county in America. The median household income is more than $87,000, but it is estimated that 135,000 of our neighbors live in poverty and more than 12,000 are homeless every year. Ever wonder how to help someone who is without resources? As winter approaches, what can we do to help? Does it help to give money to people on the street? Julia Burkhead, Program Director for Women and Family Services at InnVision, will update us on resources and services available in our community and share her insight on the best ways we can contribute to helping people. This event is free and open to the public.



Date: Monday, October 25

Time: 7:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.

Place: Vineland Branch Library (1450 Blossom Hill Road, San Jose 95118)
