Line 8:
After hearing six perspectives on homelessness (see list in the schedule below), a system diagram was shown, that illustrated the cycle from housed, to unhoused, and back to housed (image to come). Participants were asked to think about what could prevent people from becoming unhoused, and what could help peple get housing. Also what are the misfortunes that cuase homelessness, and the barriers that keep people on the streets. Participants wrote their ideas on post-its and placed them on large copies of the cycle diagram.

Each group came up with an idea and presented it, very briefly. Then we had a pizza lunch, people could keep chatting and change groups if they wanted to.
After lunch, groups got to work drawing or writing up about their ideas, and in some instances building (the outreach tracker). At 4 pm the event culminated in final presentations, described below. All ideas were applauded.[[File:Schedule.jpg|right|300px]]
