Stories Behind the Fog: Nieves

Jonath Mathew, resized and recropped
Nieves Moreno first became homeless over forty years ago

 

Nieves Moreno grew up in Chicago and was homeless from 1969 to 1989. He shared his story with Arjanna Vander Plas and Maria Muzas.

"Oh yeah, 'affordable housing' for whom? We are making $1,000 a month, so a rent of $2,000 is not affordable for us."

Find more of Nieves' oral history here. This story is an excerpt from Stories Behind The Fog: Humanizing homelessness in San Francisco, one story at a time.
