The Empowerment Plan seeks to end the generational cycle of homelessness by producing durable coats that turn into sleeping bags. These coats are made by people striving to overcome homelessness and poverty. Donations to the Circle of Warmth keep them working. These donations support an entire network of people working to end homelessness with skills-based training and employment.

In the spirit of #GivingTuesday, the MiraMed Circle of Warmth campaign has donated 150 coats to Wolverine Street Medicine a program founded by University of Michigan Medical School students in 2017. Their mission is to improve health of the homeless community, educate medical students on best practices in care and treatment of homeless person and raise awareness of health challenges associated with homelessness. These coats will be handed out to the homeless community while the clinic provides medical attention as well as food and a connection to the communities’ local resources.
