Housing First: Juneau, Alaska

Photographer Mihael Blikshteyn made this short video about The Glory Hole’s efforts to start a Housing First project in Juneau. The Glory Hole is an emergency shelter, soup kitchen and care center. The new project would target 30-50 of the most vulnerable homeless individuals in Alaska’s capital city. See more of Mihael’s work at www.mihaelblikshteyn.com.
