¿Cómo se puede construir un refugio exitoso para personas sin hogar que sea legal, práctico y económico sin costo para el contribuyente? Un grupo de voluntarios sin hogar liderados por un ingeniero aeroespacial retirado junto con corporaciones sin nes de lucro e iglesias preocupadas se lanzaron a la refriega e hicieron precisamente eso. Pero no sin cometer errores y correr riesgos por el camino. Nadie podría haber predicho lo controvertido que sería brindar refugio a nuestros vecinos que no tenían un lugar donde vivir. “Vamos a construir un refugio para perros moderno con $7 millones, pero no se molesten en pedirle al condado o a la ciudad ni un centavo para ayudar a nuestros ciudadanos
sin hogar”.
Entonces, la verdadera pregunta es: “¿Cómo se construye un refugio para personas sin hogar que funcione y sea aceptable para toda la comunidad sólo con donaciones?” Este libro cuenta la historia del esfuerzo de una comunidad de la Sierra para responder esta pregunta y cómo su éxito demostró que se podía hacer; sin embargo, su éxito también puso al poder de la ciudad en su contra.
Cuando se hizo evidente que el refugio era un éxito y que las personas sin hogar prosperaban, la estructura de poder de la ciudad se unió y lo cerró, expulsando a cuarenta hombres y mujeres sin hogar de su refugio en medio del invierno sin un lugar donde vivir.
Pero el genio ya ha salido de la botella y los ocupantes de este pequeño pueblo minero de oro saben cómo hacerlo la próxima vez. Están dispuestos a intentarlo de nuevo hasta tener éxito, aunque todos los intereses empresariales, políticos y de poder estén decididos a impedirlo. Esta historia cuenta cómo se hizo, cómo se puede hacer y cómo evitar errores graves en el camino.

After graduating from Washington University with a BA, majoring in English and Spanish, she began a long teaching career in both private and parochial schools.

Ashamed to admit to anyone that she had these mental and emotional problems, she decided to write down all she had experienced.
Using new emotional/mental strength, Helene wanted to reach out to others who suffer from these devastating illnesses. Instead of doing so by writing autobiographically, Helene chose to use theatrically-styled readings based on her own life. These readings can be done in mental care settings by social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists or among families and friends who want to overcome the stigma of mental illness. In 2011, Helene founded an NPO called “Slaying Dragons” whose mission is to destroy the stigma of mental illness through theater. The website is www.slayingdragons.org. She hopes many people and organizations will reach out to “Slaying Dragons” performances to help those in need. The impact of these readings are overwhelming.
According to Dr. Collins Lewis, professor emeritus from Washington University, this book will help many people who suffer from depression and anxiety.
Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to “Slaying Dragons” to help destroy the stigma of mental illness. -

A week or more ago, in July 2002, I came home for my 1982 high school class reunion. I was staying with my friend Jamie Scott and his family. On the way home from the reunion, we picked up his kids at the babysitter. Their little girl comes out and bounces a ball that tumbles out of her hands into the street.
Just as we arrived, a car speeds up and my instincts take over. I picked her up and get her out of the way, but I was then hit by the speeding car! Stunned, I wake up in September 1978! I am a thirty-eight-year-old man in a fourteen-old’s body! I can’t tell anyone, or they would lock me up, thinking I’m crazy! I know I would.
So here I am in the eighth grade all over again. When I went to bed in 1978, I woke up in a coma in 2002, wondering about the driver who ran me over.
