Welcome to another monthly edition of your favorite local newspaper; the one and only street newspaper written by and about Austin’s homeless community. This month, our featured online article is a lovely piece about The Challenger written by Jori Epstein and reprinted from her original article appearing in The Daily Texan.  We hope you enjoy learning more about The Challenger and our mission to provide a beacon of self-empowerment to those folks reaching for a hand up, not just a hand-out.  As always, thanks for supporting our work, which means so much to everyone here at the paper.
