Moms of Unhoused People to Come Together at the Tenderloin Museum

"In September, ABC7 premiered A Mother's Hope, a 45-minute documentary following three mothers battling to save their kids from mental illness, addiction and homelessness. For a year, reporter Tara Campbell followed the women in San Francisco, Sacramento and Los Angeles as they navigated courts, bureaucracy and HIPAA regulations. The final film was an illuminating glimpse into the many ways families are hindered by the very systems that are supposed to be helping them."

"Following the film, Campbell will lead a panel of the moms featured in the documentary. Because of their many years of hands-on experience, all three women have specialized knowledge of the biggest challenges facing families trying to assist loved ones living on the streets. They also know a thing or two about California's judicial system and the best ways to handle legal challenges. As such, this panel will likely provide invaluable information for any families experiencing similar difficulties with their own kids or loved ones."
