Impact Campaign: One Year Update

Greetings from A Bigger Vision Films!

We’ve wrapped up year one of our social impact campaign, and we are on to our second year. We’re currently planning events from late summer into early winter, and we have a little more availability for communities to schedule impact campaign events for this year. The road gets tough but it’s worth watching the light bulb go off in communities when they realize: “We can solve our homelessness crisis!”

We’ve made a new episode of our Behind The Scenes series – Episode 8 recaps our first year of great events that in some cities have moved the needle toward solutions. Enjoy!

Can BEYOND THE BRIDGE come to my community?

Film licensing is available to organizations, elected officials, universities, churches, conferences, small groups, as well as for community impact screenings. Please fill out the Screening Request Form and we’ll get back to you shortly.

We are encouraged to see communities embracing the concept of working across sectors – law enforcement/judicial system, non-profit service providers, healthcare systems, elected officials, mental health and rehab service providers, business sector, building contractors/landlords, philanthropy – all working as a team within a single response system to address their homelessness crisis, as opposed to working in silos and then blaming each other for the overall failure.

BOTTOM LINE: The sooner communities realize

• that what’s going on in D.C. is real
• that in the next federal budget the homeless response system will go from simply underfunded to massively underfunded
• that the bickering and blame gaming in municipalities over homelessness has to stop
• and that local solutions have to be found because the federal government is pulling back

the sooner communities will be surprised to discover something powerful:

There’s a blueprint to eliminate homelessness that works – and it’s better and more effective than what they were doing before.

Be well,
Don and Tim
