Hunger and Homelessness Awareness 

City-wide Sleep Out: A Bench is Not a Bed

It is our social responsibility not only as human beings, but also as members of a Jesuit University, to be aware of what our brothers and sisters are going through every day. Therefore, the Center for Community Service and Justice (CCSJ) invites any student, faculty, staff or administrator who is interested in learning more about the world around them and who wants to gain a more global perspective to join us for this year's City-wide Sleep Out, a part of National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week. The goal of this event is to raise awareness and create solidarity with those who are hungry and homeless by sleeping out on the steps of City Hall and advocating for legislation affecting people experiencing homelessness to be changed.
