Find My Way Home

Find My Way Home (28 minutes) features David’s story and lessons learned. Learn through his experiences, being shuffled between 15 foster homes, waiting to be adopted, living on the street for 9 years; experiencing abuse, prostitution, drug addiction, bullying, constant assaults to his mental health, and contemplating suicide at age 16.

Finding the courage and support to turn his life around, he’s now paying it forward. David is on a mission to educate us about the myths and realities of homelessness and street life.
