Last night, we went to the Coalition for the Homeless following our drive back to Orlando from St. Petersberg. I so love going to the Coalition, or "The Coco" as it is affectionately called by those who inhabit it. Often, there is criticism levied against facilities like the Coco. They're labeled as bandaids that do not truly solve the problem. First off, I find this insulting to all of the staff that fill this facility, it further insults the donors who support the Coco in the name of over $1.4 million. The Coalition in particular acts as so much more than a bandaid and it is a place I truly love with people I care for.
