Breaking the stigma of homelessness: Operation Helping Hands SoCal
As a teenager, Kim Valentine found herself without a home. Today, she’s the founder and president of Operation Helping Hands SoCal, a nonprofit dedicated to helping the unhoused rebuild their lives. In this episode of SoCal Voices, Valentine opens up about her journey from surviving the streets to creating change—and calls on all of us to replace our judgement of homeless people with empathy and action. Her story reminds us that when compassion meets commitment, healing is possible and lives can be transformed. After hearing her story, you might see SoCal’s homeless differently and become a more effective advocate for this vulnerable population.
