Flyer:  "Lost in Woonsocket" free screening
Berlin, MD- The Worcester County Homeless Board, in partnership with Red Doors Community Center, will host a viewing of the film: Lost in Woonsocket at 5 pm on Sunday, March 10, 2019 at the Red Doors Community Center (10959 Worcester Highway) in Berlin. Lost in Woonsocket is a docudrama following two homeless individuals on a journey of recovery, friendship, struggle and support. The Homeless Board hopes the film will help the community better understand the struggles someone experiencing homelessness may face.

The film focuses on the profound question: Can one seemly insignificant act of kindness towards a random stranger change their life? Filmed in Woonsocket, RI, the filmmakers were driven by the thought that kindness could inspire a chain reaction of compassion when they stumbled upon two homeless alcoholics sharing a tent in the small town. As the story unfolds, viewers will witness the real-life struggles of homelessness, addiction and stigma.
