What is SleepOut?
Sleeping in a “box shelter,” hearing and seeing stories of homeless families who have made the move to independence and permanent housing, and sharing each otherʼs experiences will bring this ministry up close and personal for our youth. With their help, the Shreveport-Bossier community can indeed become a place where no family is homeless.
