The independent short film, "How To Sleep In
The Cold" tells the story of one wealthy man who seems to have
everything, and one homeless woman who's mere belongings get stolen
all the time. According to
the Department of Housing and Urban Development, there were 771,480
homeless people in the US on January, 2024. That figure
increased 18% from the previous year. While homelessness in
Tampa does not get national attention, the number of homeless here
is growing 4% - 5% a year.
It's a crushing problem that's far from
receding. Here are some paths to doing your part. This page
lists various resources for homeless people and homeless prevention
