These were all fantastic talks but …
It was DAKINI VERONA, who brought the house down. She shared her personal story about how being homeless when she was young didn't stop her from getting back on her feet and becoming a successful association executive. When you confront homelessness, it's not about where people on the street are, it's where they have come from. Compassion and assistance are gifts we can give back to people who are in this situation through no fault of their own. SupportWorld Homeless Day, October 10, 2011. We'd all like to thank Dakini for a courageous, inspiring, and important talk. That standing ovation was a testament to the immense power held within five well-told minutes.
