Street Sense Media, based in Washington, DC, operates as a media producer creating content across print, film, theater, photography, audio, and illustration to advance economic opportunity for people experiencing homelessness and to amplify their voices. The organization aims to challenge public perceptions of homelessness and to foster community by presenting the talents and experiences of individuals who are homeless. It operates on the belief that talent and creativity are not limited by housing status. Within the media landscape, Street Sense Media is a small-to-mid-sized organization that emphasizes inclusive storytelling and community impact. A recent development is the March 2023 publication of 'A journalist’s guide to covering homelessness,' which provides guidance for reporters covering related topics.
