Join Volunteers of America for a screening of this film that follows a group of homeless people as they struggle to survive on the streets against a harassing gang, an unforgiving community, and the local authorities.
VOA presents “Americans With No Address” on Wednesday, April 30 at 5:30 p.m. at The Little Theatre (240 East Avenue).
The cast and producers of the feature film No Address, a movie about a group of individuals who fall into homelessness, toured America to learn firsthand why there is a growing homelessness crisis in America. The team set out on a cross-country bus tour over a span of three weeks, visiting 20 major cities across 18 states with the mission to understand both the human experience and governmental policies while meeting the advocates who work to offer solutions, revealing some surprising truths. The documentary aims to answer crucial questions: Why is homelessness happening? What are different cities doing about it? What strategies are working, and what are not?
The film will be followed by a panel discussion, moderated by WXXI News’ Evan Dawson, host of “Connections with Evan Dawson.”
Panelists include:
- Dr. Junior Dillion, President and CEO, Volunteers of America Upstate New York
- Tree Clemonds, Executive Director, Continuum of Care
- Dr. Mike Hudson, CEO, Regional Health Reach
- Melanie Murphy, Psychiatric NP, Delphi Rise
