BRIEF: humanize the course of badly lodged

Photographers, tell the story a person goes through while renting, of the persons who, thanks to this push in the right direction, succeeded in avoiding the street. These persons who, thanks to the intervention of associations and hired social workers, found hope and respectability. 
 

How many of them remained after losing their job, met a problem of health or changed by family situation, to have met near exclusion? It is at this stage of fragility, when everything can again topple over, that the Foundation for the Social Accommodation intervenes.
