How does it feel to live without a home? 🏠
“Well, you feel like a ghost. You feel disconnected from the general people that you see around you,” says Olivier M., who was formerly homeless in Toronto.
In partnership with CityNews, #TheGreenLineTO community producers Aloysius Wong (@alowishoes) and Mahdis Habibinia (@mahdishabibinia) spoke to Torontonians who’ve experienced homelessness to learn more about how they accessed resources and navigated the city.
