Homeless Has A Name

In the 1990s, Mark Horvath was homeless, one of many "nameless" faces we avoid seeing. Now he and supporters of this effort, called "Invisible People", are trying to do something to end homelessness in the United States. It's an ambitious goal, but he's leveraging the power of the Internet and social media to get word out about the need and his mission. Now there's a documentary project underway, funded via Kickstarter, to highlight his work and the reality of life on the streets. It's called @home. Check out the trailer below and keep an eye out for the documentary when it's complete. You can also follow Mark and Invisible People on Twitter at @invisiblepeople.
