Three years ago, Arjanna van der Plas moved from Amsterdam to San Francisco so her husband could work for Google. She thought she'd find a job in tech for herself too, but she was so touched by the social inequality in the city that not Silicon Valley but the Tenderloin became her new home. Together with the team of Stories Behind The Fog (http://storiesbehindthefog.com/) she is now collecting 100 stories of people that have experienced homelessness, striving to rehumanize the issue, and in this talk, she will share what she's learned from the people she interviewed.
