Andrea Noble

As a mother of four, Andrea Noble knows all too well the stress that comes with being unhoused.

After experiencing the isolating difficulty of figuring out where to shower, where to sleep, and how to get her kids to school while unhoused, Noble is fighting for change. She understands the life-altering benefits of affordable housing and is using her voice to advocate so that others may gain access to it, too.

All Human need Homes

“Being homeless makes you feel really low. You feel less human in a sense, because you don’t have a place to go.”

“We are the fifth largest economy in the world. Why don’t we put our money where our mouth is?”
