AS FEATURED IN:
No one should go through homelessness alone.
As the Founder-in-Residence of Miracle Messages, Kevin helps lead a global community of volunteers and referral partners, who have successfully reconnected 1,000+ people experiencing homelessness with their loved ones, matched unhoused individuals with caring volunteers for 250K+ minutes of phone calls and texts, and launched one of the first basic income pilots for the homeless in the US.
“Read this book to understand how being
connected can save us all.” –Andrew Yang

Think about the last time that you saw or interacted with an unhoused person. What did you do? What did you say? Did you offer money or a smile, or did you avert your gaze?
When We Walk By takes an urgent look at homelessness in America, showing us what we lose—in ourselves and as a society—when we choose to walk past and ignore our neighbors in shelters, insecure housing, or on the streets. And it shows what we stand to gain when we embrace our humanity and move toward evidence-based people-first, community-driven solutions, offering social analysis, economic and political histories, and the real stories of our unhoused neighbors.
Readers will learn:
• Why our brains have been trained to overlook our unhoused neighbors
• The social, economic, & political forces that shape myths like “all homeless people are addicts”
• What relational poverty is, and how to shift away from “us versus them” thinking
• That for many Americans, housing insecurity is just one missed paycheck away
• Who “the homeless” really are—and why that might surprise you
• What you can do to help, starting today
Don’t be a stranger
“More than half of all Americans are one paycheck away from not being able to pay rent. Yet the vast majority of us will not end up on the streets. But why? Family and friends safeguard tens of millions of us housed people. Whether it’s helping us out with rent, letting us stay for a few weeks, or simply offering the emotional support we need in difficult times, our social support systems shelter us from homelessness. So what about for the others?”
