I am Abigail Waterman

I chose to sleepout so that I can learn more about what its like to face youth homelessness to be more aware of what some teens go through. I believe that homelessness in Vancouver is a huge problem that is not talked about enough. there is so much going on in the world around homelessness and addiction and the adults in our world are not taking it seriously enough. That's one of the main reasons why I wanted to join the Gleneagle sleepout to be able to raise awareness and hopefully make a bit of a difference in something that is such a world issue.
