Homeless in Seattle

Tyron Gamble, recently released from Florida State Penitentiary, arrived in Seattle via cross-country bus paid for by the state of Florida. While trying to get his life in order and avoid the bad influences in his home state he landed in Seattle in search of a stable place to readjust to life without drugs and violence. This transition was tough for Gamble, who struggled to balance clean life at the City Team Ministries shelter and the insatiable pull to hard drugs in other parts of town. For the few weeks I was able to stay in contact with Gamble, he see-sawed between sobriety and an addict's life in Pioneer Square.
