Homeless and High Tech

Eric SheptockThough he's homeless himself, Eric Sheptock writes a blog, has a Facebook page and a Twitter account. He lives in Washington, D.C. and says he wants to educate the public about what he and many others like him are up against.

"...if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry
and satisfy the needs of the oppressed,
then your light will rise in the darkness,
and your night will become like the noonday."
- Isaiah 58:10
