"St. Ann’s Center for Children, Youth and Families marked November’s National Homelessness Awareness Month with a screening of a short documentary film, “In Her Words,” at Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School’s Nolan Center. The film that was screened at the Catholic high school in Washington highlighted four young mothers who had experienced homelessness and other challenges before coming to live at St. Ann’s."‘In Her Words’ film highlights how St. Ann’s brings help and hope to homeless mothers
