The issue of homeless in Louisville is grabbing the attention this week as Rx housing, a national initiative, moves into Louisville. With the project still in the ground stages, the issue of homelessness in our city is all over the streets. In 2013, there were a total of 8,608 homeless individuals in Louisville metro, according to a study done by the Coalition for the Homeless.
Our Paper Louisville, Louisville’s newly published street newspaper, is made up of the stories of the city’s homeless and by the city’s homeless. When the publisher of Our Paper Louisville, Bob Millard, moved to Louisville less than a year ago, he took on the herculean task of giving a voice to the homeless in Louisville in the form of a street newspaper.
