MHO is about children sleeping on a bed instead of a blanket on the floor. It’s about families sitting around a table talking and laughing while having a meal instead of holding their plates on their laps. It’s about helping families and newcomers, young and old, single moms and the working poor make their shelter a home.&#xD;
