Zeeland woman named as speaker in state Homeless Speakers Bureau
Kim Harris of Zeeland has been selected for the 2018 inaugural class of the Michigan Coalition Against Homelessness Homeless Speakers Bureau. The eight new speakers, all with homelessness experience, will share their stories at events across lower Michigan to educate decision makers and the public and to counter stigma. Harris became homeless at age 49 due to medical conditions and later advocates for the homeless and social justice. The coalition describes the bureau as a change in conversation to portray accurate homelessness experiences beyond common media images.
