—Booklist, starred review
"A must-read for anyone interested in solving the problem of homelessness."
—Publishers Weekly
Homelessness is an issue that’s deeply important to most Americans—and most people want to help. But knowing what to do can be daunting: isn’t homelessness really just about mental health? Aren’t most unhoused people addicts? And what can I really do about it, anyway?
The truth: No, not reallly—and more importantly, you can do a lot.
Homelessness isn’t a choice, a lifestyle, or something that happens to people who “deserve” it—and myths or questions surrounding who loses their housing, why it happens, and what we can each do to support our unhoused neighbors can sometimes prevent us from showing up and taking action… even when we know we want to help.

In When We Walk By: The Workbook, authors Kevin Adler and Donald Burnes offer empowering, inspiring exercises that will help you gauge where you can make a difference—and help you build a comprehensive understanding of the intersecting issues that create and perpetuate homelessness in America today.
