  • Across Britain, Nature Is in Vogue, the Countryside Is the New Chic. The
    Across Britain, nature is in vogue, the countryside is the new chic. The vintage pastoral patterns of Cath Kidston, the bright floral designs and gentrified tweed of Joules, and the Hunter-welly clad urbanites clambering down from their Range Rovers boldly proclaim the rural as a middle- class fashion statement. A perceived ‘nature deficit’ has fuelled a new interest in all things rural, rustic and wholesome, as seen in the expansion of charitable organisations like the National Trust and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). Membership of such associations are at an all-time high – in 2010, the number of RSPB members stood at more than double that of the three major political parties.1 Both now place new emphasis on family adventures in the outdoors; the new ‘natural playgrounds’ of the National Trust parallel the growing Forest School movement. In bookshops, ‘new nature writing’ dominates the shelves whilst window displays are full of bucolic book covers, nature lino prints, and matching floral tea towels. Essayists, anecdotal writers, prose-poets, and natural historians like Robert Macfarlane, Kathleen Jamie, Roger Deakin, and Helen MacDonald (to name but a few) call us back to the wild, opening our eyes to their landscapes (and ours) with beautiful and nostalgic evocations of what we are missing in the twenty-first century. Often, this nostalgia drives the authors backwards, to a lost landscape that is at once more remote and free of human interference (except that of the lonely poet). Sometimes it is conflicted: Jamie has criticised the romanticized stance of the ‘lone, enraptured male’ nature writer, with time and funds to conquer far-off Celtic fringes.2 Others argue that when the rural is eulogised, the urban becomes lamented.

  • Getting Off the Streets
    AUGUST 2018 Chasing the Dream: Getting Off the Streets omelessness is the most difficult cycle of poverty to overcome. Transitioning out of the pattern takes resolution and commitment, but one organization — the Interfaith Homeless Outreach Council (IHOC) has made it its mission to provide effective outreach to the homeless in New Jersey. H Each year, the IHOC accepts a select group of 10 men to support and empower through a months-long intensive program out of homelessness. The men are freed from the streets of Camden and given the opportunity to work on themselves to regain their lives, dignity, purpose and independence. Chasing the Dream — Getting Off the Streets follows the journey of these men who’ve been living on the streets of Camden, but are ready to make a change for the better. Each man has agreed to participate in this rigorous program for individual reasons, but they share in the belief that they’ve hit rock bottom and they’re finally ready to seriously redeem their lives. Over the course of six months, the men live together as a group in temporary housing, set up in a homeless hospitality network of church and synagogue basements and community halls across the county as they detox, clean-up, attend 12-step programs, face temptations, wrestle doubt, pay fines and tickets for past grievances, attend counseling sessions, take care of their health, and find steady reliable employment as they learn to save money for a safe place to live upon graduation.
