As important as this is, it [...]]]></description>

Turning Points is a collaborative video-documentary created by Real Change vendors, staff, and volunteers.

Our lives are constantly shaped by transitions &#8211; some positive, others negative, some life affirming, others crushing. All of us have stories to tell. In Turning Points we hear from eight homeless and formerly homeless Real Change vendors about the transitions in [...]]]></description>
