Washington D.C
I had an amazing time with the Washington D.C group. Our group as you already know worked with the hungry and homeless and it was a trip that gave me a greater sense of self awareness as well as impacted my life. The stories that we heard from both volunteers and a special speaker named Jo- Ann really made me think about how we are dealing or more so not really dealing with the problem of poverty and homelessness and I think a really important idea that was stressed when people talked to us was the multi faceted causes of homelessness that we arent exempt from and listening to the stories of the homeless and hungry guests we ate dinner with sometimes it is just one bad choice that you make that can change your life and we are all human and aren't exempt from making bad choices and I think that was something I have thought about a lot both during and after the trip.
