Working on the Road Home

At first I was a little jealous that Stephanie had been placed at the public defender’s office and I was going to be walking around some random neighborhood knocking on people’s door’s all day asking them a list of questions over and over for five days in a row….However, now I realize I am in the PERFECT placement. I am exactly where I need to be. Obviously, whoever was in charge knew where my social and listening skills would be most useful and put me to the task that really opened my eyes to the heart of New Orleans three years after the storm. This is about a community of people who have bonded together and helped eacht oher through thick and thin to bring the neighborhood to where it is now and although they have years and years to go, their perserverance and support of one another is enough to get them out of bed each and every day.
