JOIN US FOR CONVERSATIONS ON A BENCH ON OCTOBER 9 - 10
24 Hours of Live, Unedited Conversations about Homelessness – Conversations on a bench
For 24 hours, we are joining a nationwide event to openly discuss this hotly debated subject from a first-person perspective – people who have experienced it and found their way out.
Hosted by OCRM President Bryan Crain, we’ll livestream conversations on a park bench with Orange County people experiencing homelessness, Rescue Mission program students and graduates, pastors, and local leaders. It’s a safe space to listen, ask questions, and better understand homelessness.
The livestream starts at 12 noon on October 9, right here on this page.
Want to join the conversation? Comment with questions once the livestream starts, or stop by Village of Hope at 1 Hope Drive in Tustin to have a conversation with Bryan about homelessness.

Conversations on a Bench” is a nationwide, 24-hour livestream event to spotlight stories of hope and raise awareness about homelessness and the organizations serving in communities throughout North America. Conversations on a Bench is sponsored by Citygate Network.
