Last week, Mecklenburg Ministries sponsored a walk by elected officials to see what it's like for someone experiencing homelessness to get around. Along the walk they stopped in front of the Men's Shelter of Charlotte's Tryon Street Campus and were greeted by our own Sylvester Huff, who then took them on a tour of some local homeless camp sites. Sylvester told them about his own experience and challenged them to provide the city leadership on this issue.
Check out these photos of Sylvester talking with local leaders including Dr. Peter Gorman (School Superintendent), Jennifer Roberts (Mecklenburg County Board of Commissioners Chair), Harold Gogdell, Jr. (Vice-Chair, Board of Commissioners), Nancy Carter (City Council). Also pictured is Maria Hanlin, Executive Director of Mecklenburg Ministries.
