Hope you get your dissertation out there in published or otherwise reachable form. Say, I see you are serving on homelessness issues in Simi. Isn't there some new state legislation requiring cities to take more responsibility for homeless folks in their cities? As you may know, in TO all the overnight winter shelter-and-meals program is carried by a handful of local churches (ours among them), which has been a wonderful thing in many way. We have been looking forward, though, to the city of TO stepping up to the plate a bit more, which has been the kind of hope that is...uh..more the substance of things hoped for than anything else. So, I wonder how all that is going in Simi, and what good news you have about what your group is doing. Please forgive me if I have missed blogs you have done on this...I just popped in from a JR link. If you haven't so far, would you blog a bit about engagement with homeless folks and issues? -Linda Kurt,

Congrats on your Ph.D. (stands for Phinally Done, right?). Hope you get your dissertation out there in published or otherwise reachable form.

Say, I see you are serving on homelessness issues in Simi. Isn’t there some new state legislation requiring cities to take more responsibility for homeless folks in their cities?
