There have been vigilante actions recently in Reno targeting those without shelter. But what about those who find community at their local park? What about those who find friends to take care of their belongings when they have no other options? What about those who want to live with their pets? Annette has been living on the streets on and off for about three years. She talks with Our Town Reno Reporter Lucia Starbuck about how much she cares for her ailing dog Keika and what her day at the park is like. Thanks for taking a closer listen to those struggling in our community.
