DOES DOWNTOWN SILVER SPRING HAVE A HOMELESSNESS PROBLEM? 👀

I’ve noticed people experiencing homelessness around Downtown Silver Spring, MD, and I’m curious to hear what locals think.

Is this a growing concern, or has it always been part of the community?

Let’s have a respectful conversation in the comments👇🏾

Screenwriters witness their words transformed by an actor who breathes life into their screenplay. Writers and actors will exchange feedback before receiving insight from the attendees and workshop facilitators: Joseph Vivens @josephvivens (award winning director/producer), Mimi Lam, MFA @mimilam79 (Actor/Director), Sadhana Jackson-Vivens,MD @sadhana_jackson_vivens (award winning producer).
