Have you ever lost a home or job or had your identity lost or stolen? Have you ever paid your rent on one day only to be given an eviction notice the next day because the landlord had not paid the mortgage or the property was being foreclosed on? These are just a few of the kinds of displacement that families go through all over the world. Do I pay the rent or do I buy my children something to eat? Do i make the mortgage or do I pay the medical cost for treatment for cancer or another devastating illness? The plant has been closed now for two years, is there another business that will come in so we can have jobs or do we have to move?

Displacement comes in many forms and is not a respector of persons. I work with displaced families. To get the funding that we need to continue I am looking for your story. Please tell me about you or your family's displacement.
