Scenario

How neighborhoods navigate conflicting values around homelessness

Our neighborhood has been dealing with a homeless encampment nearby and every community meeting turns into people yelling past each other about compassion versus safety. We all live here together but we can't seem to have a real conversation about what we actually owe each other.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Community challenges expose the tension between individual comfort and collective responsibility, revealing how little neighbors actually know about each other's deepest values.
