Each year since 1990, on or near the first day of winter and the longest night of the year, National Coalition for the Homeless (NCH) has sponsored National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day to bring attention to the tragedy of homelessness and to remember our homeless friends who have paid the ultimate price for our nation's failure to end homelessness




At Church on the nearest Sunday to the Winter Solstice, during the Intersession, I always read:

{Thursday}, the first day of Winter, and facing the longest night of the year, is National Homeless Person's Memorial Day, sponsored by the National Coalition for the Homeless to remember those who have perished for want of shelter in our Nation, those for whom there is, literally, no room.

And then I pass out cards with the URL in the subject line.
