Harris said the Web site for Real Change was developed as a service to people in other cities who want to duplicate his paper's successful model. We think homeless papers are an incredibly powerful tool for homeless self-help and public education,'' Harris said. One of the things contributing to Real Change's success is its attitude. Unlike many publications dealing with homelessness, Real Change remains upbeat and positive. We are able to deal with the issues without boring people or making them dread us as being unremittingly grim.
People trying to survive do so with humor and style and drama.
We just try to pass that on.
