    InnVision

    The 27-year-old nonprofit organization provides help for the homeless


    InnVision is a 27-year-old Willow Glen nonprofit organization dedicated to helping homeless individuals and families get back on their feet. Jan Bernstein Chargin, communications director for InnVision, says InnVision has responded to the changes in the homeless population over the past four decades. When the nonprofit first opened in 1973, most of the homeless people were men with mental illnesses. The 1980s saw an increase in homelessness in general, and was followed by an explosion of homeless women and children in the early 1990s, she said. Now, many of the homeless people that InnVision serves are employed.   More
