Through the lens of photographer Gerardo Vázquez, we are drawn into the harsh reality our unhoused population face day after day. Looking closely at each face you see the stress, the exhaustion of the round-the-clock struggle to meet basic needs in freezing temperatures or unrelenting heat. Their eyes expose their pain in feeling vulnerable, ignored, and unwanted. The photographs are not intended to make you feel comfortable. Rather, it is hoped they evoke a discomfort that opens your eyes and your heart to the brutal conditions that exist and prompt you to offer help and hope to your unhoused neighbors.
