- Description
- Description SUMMARY OF INTERVIEW: AC moved to the United States in 1990 to find work in Connecticut then Massachusetts then DC. He worked as a taxi driver for a couple years before finding a permanent position as a security guard for commercial buildings within DC. As soon as he moved to the United States he began English classes and now takes computer classes to increase his skills. He retired in 2015 and began receiving Social Security and also withdrew his 401k. He is currently unemployed and focusing on his health because he was unable to do so when he was working. He has plans to learn Microsoft PowerPoint take his skills back to his homeland to teach children the application as well as English. PROJECT’S OBJECTIVES: The Homeless Voices Amplification Co-op (HVAC) works to amplify stories of unhoused individuals’ past and present work experiences. Recognizing that unhoused individuals are the most valuable source of knowledge on the realities of their employment, HVAC partners with the unhoused to create space for strategic community reflection as a means to further activism for economic justice. HVAC believes stories have the power to humanize individuals and undermine stigmas and stereotypes in ways statistics cannot. HVAC intends to draw upon the power of these stories to create a powerful, multi-dimensional online platform that can enhance efforts to mobilize the community.
