My Capstone Project
For my Capstone project I decided to do my project on “Homelessness in our community”. I am not just generalizing it as homelessness, rather how homelessness affects families and our community. I’ve had an interest in the stigma and the stereotypical thoughts made toward those who are homeless for years now. I am mostly interested in doing this topic because I’ve been there more than once and I know a lot information to educate people to know what it’s actually like to be homeless, especially in our community and get rid of that stigma and those stereotypical thoughts on homelessness. My basis and main focal point will be on a wonderful place located in downtown Vancouver. The place is called Open House Ministries and it serves homeless families in our community. I am going to do a video mashup and an infographic on my project. I am excited to do the video portion because video is what i’m into. I am going to try my best at having text, color and images that will tie both together in the infographic and video mashup.
30 families and 7 single women are currently living at Open house ministries totaling of 107 people half of which are children.
