Home. A simple word that for many means more than just a physical structure. It's a place where our story begins and returns to again and again. What happens to that story when the structure is taken away? Storycatchers set out to capture the stories of those living, loving or supporting someone experiencing homelessness in Appleton, Wisconsin. These are their voices. Their lives. And always - their stories.
