I remember, just like it was yesterday, when I walked into the office to start selling papers for Street Sense. I met founders Laura Thompson Osuri and Ted Henson. They made me feel welcome with their kindness and love. They showed great respect to me and all the other vendors.
To all the staff members of Street Sense, I want to thank you. Our editor-in-chief, Mary Otto, our new director, Brian Carome, and our vendor manager, Allen Hoorn, are very much hands-on, and they treat you like family. And the interns are The Best. I know. I would not have been able to stand on my feet again if it weren’t for Street Sense. And even though I’m homeless, when I walk into the Street Sense office … it’s home.
