  1. 💐 Rosie’s Place: More than a shelter…a second chance.

    Today, alongside other dedicated volunteers, we served Saturday dinner🍲. I always like to remind our community that the women who come here are family to someone—mothers, grandmothers, sisters—each carrying a story, each deserving safety and respect.

    A quick look inside the 🍽️ dining room and 🌳 courtyard before volunteers served dinner. Since 1974, Rosie’s Place has been a sanctuary for LGBTQIA+ women and anyone who self‑identifies as female.

    ➡️ Because Rosie’s Place accepts no government funding, they rely 100% on community support.

    Alaa is not someone I personally know, but she is verified; and this does look like a bad situation.

  18. The effects around a true #Guru can be extraordinary. How did #Peter manage one step? #Babaji does say that faith in Guru can work wonders. #MissKitty does not wonder if the end of #homelessness can occur. It's just another #Wonder, God has no trouble creating. #Meditation brings mental stability.

  21. @sanders.senate.gov Even summaries are too long to put here (full report below), but it says it's a great idea you have. It easily works in #Washington State. Of course it would work so much better if we could come together nationally. #AI is the perfect #funding #mechanism for ending #homelessness.

  22. The best AI story you probably never heard — because it worked quietly.

    LA County built a model (with UCLA's California Policy Lab) that predicts who's likely to lose their housing in the next 12 months — before it happens. It pulls data across county agencies (social services, mental health, health services) and connects people to stabilizing help *upstream*, instead of waiting for the eviction notice or the ER visit.

    The results:
    People on the high-risk list became homeless at ~3.5x the rate of the eligible population — meaning the model actually finds the right people

    It reaches folks who weren't connected to ANY existing prevention program

    They ran an equity audit: performance was essentially identical across race, ethnicity, and gender

    County-wide homelessness has now declined two years in a row (-4%)

    No panic headlines. No billionaire keynote. Just prevention, transparency, and an audit. This is what ethical AI deployment looks like: model → equity audit → human services → rigorous evaluation.

    Could this work in Roanoke? Our unhoused neighbors deserve upstream help, not just emergency beds. Who else in the #Roanoke region is thinking about this?
