BRIANNA KARP
Join Patricia as she interviews Brianna Karp, author of the candid and inspiring new memoir, The Girl’s Guide to Homelessness. She will share her remarkable story of how as an educated woman, working for a living since adolescence, have used no drugs with no mental illness, ended up living in an old camper trailer, without utility hookups, in a Wal-Mart parking lot? Expanding on a story that has already gained the attention of media around the world, Brianna tells the at once harrowing and hopeful tale of how anyone can become-and survive being-homeless. Her inspiring and painfully true story underscores how close many of us live to the line between a “normal” life and homelessness and can alter the way we view the issue of homelessness.
