Thanks For A Successful Premiere! Our thanks to everyone who helped make the Premiere of My Road Leads Home a success! More than 100 people came downtown to the Spokane Public Library on Thursday evening, May 30, to attend the Premiere of The Spokane Homeless Connect, the first installment in the My Road Leads Home series of documentaries about homelessness in Spokane. Julie Garcia, from Jewels Helping Hands, brought homeless guests and Rick Clark from Giving Backpacks provided fully-loaded backpacks to everyone who wanted one. It was an evening of laughter, tears, challenges and a fresh vision for how we can all work together for the “Shalom” of our Community. Thanks to our amazing videography crew you can watch the evening’s highlights and discover what Britain’s Got Talent and Susan Boyle have to do with solving homelessness in Spokane!

KREM 2 (the local CBS affiliate) contacted me about the documentary short on Homeless Camps (which you'll find on this page) and asked for an interview.
Fig Tree Article On “The Dignity of A Shower”
I honestly didn't see this one coming. I got an email saying, "Here's the link to your story." It's a story about "The Dignity of A Shower," our documentary short on the need for showers in the homeless community. My thanks to Mary Stamp (Editor) and the staff at The Fig Tree Newspaper for following our documentaries on homelessness in Spokane.
It’s Always Nice To Get Noticed!
Shawn Vestal and The Spokesman-Review paid us a visit as we were filming "Give Me Shelter." We genuinely appreciated the very positive exposure they gave us for what we're trying to accomplish, showing a better optic, telling a better story, and setting a better tone.

Our Thanks to SpIFF For Selecting Our Film!
We were approached in late 2019 by the directors of the Spokane International Film Festival (SpIFF) and asked if we had a version of "The Hidden Homeless" that we could submit to the Festival. Their board had decided that they wanted to do something relevant to the issue of homelessness and had heard about our work. We agreed and Nathan Slabaugh (Slabaugh Media) worked to chop down our Director's Cut to a shorter film festival version which we submitted to great reviews. Many thanks!
