Videos About Alcoholism

Denise is homeless in Cornwall, United Kingdom. Although Denise and I met online some time ago, we just connected in person while I was visiting Manchester, England for With One Voice International Arts and Homelessness Summit.

I first met Denise on Twitter [https://twitter.com/Justagirl2017x]. I was impressed with how Denise openly and honestly shared publicly about struggling with homelessness, addiction to alcohol, depression, and the abusive relationships with men that she found herself in.

What began as therapy, Denise turned into a blog called Just A Girl - My Life that you can find here: http://justagirl.emyspot.com. Denise is now a mental health writer and she spends her time talking about homelessness and depression hoping her story will educate and inspire other homeless women who may be going through the same situation.

Denise has been homeless in the UK for nearly five years. She shares about how quickly homeless people adapt to a bad situation and abnormal becomes normal. Denise is lucky that she never ended up sleeping rough on the streets but she has still ben pushed around the social support system. Just like here in the United States, the UK has a large percentage of hidden homeless sleeping on couches in situations that are not safe.

About Invisible People:

Since its launch in November 2008, Invisible People has leveraged the power of video and the massive reach of social media to share the compelling, gritty, and unfiltered stories of homeless people from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. The vlog (video blog) gets up close and personal with veterans, mothers, children, layoff victims and others who have been forced onto the streets by a variety of circumstances. Each week, they’re on InvisiblePeople.tv, and high traffic sites such as YouTube, Twitter and Facebook, proving to a global audience that while they may often be ignored, they are far from invisible.

Invisible People goes beyond the rhetoric, statistics, political debates, and limitations of social services to examine poverty in America via a medium that audiences of all ages can understand, and can’t ignore. The vlog puts into context one of our nation’s most troubling and prevalent issues through personal stories captured by the lens of Mark Horvath – its founder – and brings into focus the pain, hardship and hopelessness that millions face each day. One story at a time, videos posted on InvisiblePeople.tv shatter the stereotypes of America’s homeless, force shifts in perception and deliver a call to action that is being answered by national brands, nonprofit organizations and everyday citizens now committed to opening their eyes and their hearts to those too often forgotten.

Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the way we think about people experiencing homelessness.
