From her original idea, a book club was developed for residents at the 2100 Lakeside Shelter for Men in Cleveland, Ohio and later in Joseph’s Home, a transitional shelter for homeless people.
The homeless health literacy book club was the first of its kind in the U.S. “Sometimes healthcare isn’t just about passing out pills,� Donna told The Christian Science Monitor.
