Just to let you all know: I forwarded one of these threads to Megan Rohrer, director of Growing Home Community Garden and someone very involved in project Homeless Connect, letting her know that HVF was eager to make connections with the broader homeless and homeless services community. Hopefully she gets in touch, I'm sure she'll be of some help in this process.<div>
<br></div><div>One last thought: have people talked at all with the folks who do sleep there? Seen if in fact they are involved or aware of the IV use? Their thoughts?</div><div>Best,</div><div>Antonio<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>Oy! You are not the only one who conflated the two (mea culpa)!  Very, very good point!  I love it when a stereotype of mine is shattered :-).<br>
<br>
Maybe that's another reason to reach out to some of the homeless living around the Farm - they might have some better insights on who is doing what, too...<br>
