Mapping Health and Homelessness in Seattle

Although I love words and writing, there are many times when visual information is more effective at conveying complex ideas, facts, and emotions. That is why, for many years now, I have created digital storytelling videos about health and homelessness in Seattle. I use these videos in teaching and in my public scholarship. Recently, in a Stories-in-Motion online course I am taking through the StoryCenter, I created this StoryMap (free version for frugality and simplicity), “Skid Road: Stories of Homelessness in Seattle.” It is a work in progress (isn’t everything?), meaning I will add to it over time. It also happens to be more personal, weaving my story into the bigger story of homelessness in Seattle.
