The Event:  Screening of “Beyond the Bridge: A Solution To Homelessness” and Panel DiscussionFollowing their first documentary, “Under the Bridge: The Criminalization of Homelessness,” A BiggerVision Films “traveled over 40,000 miles around the US to answer this question: How can this countrysolve homelessness in a comprehensive way?” They said, “The answer surprised us with its simplicity,as two large cities [Houston and Milwaukee] proved that solving homelessness is within reach of anycommunity.” This screening will be part of their Impact Campaign which is already leveraging collective andcollaborative action in communities across the country. Cities where this is screened as part of theirImpact tour are committing to and funding evidence-based plans to end homelessness, not unlike theZero KC Plan. We need stakeholders in KC to commit to funding and implementing the Zero KC plan.
