Austin Street Center Launches Month-Long Installation at Galleria Dallas

DALLAS — This November, Austin Street Center brings its mission to Galleria Dallas. The installation raises awareness, inspires compassion, and engages the community during National Homelessness Awareness Month.

The installation, called the Unlocking Hope Wall, will be unveiled Saturday, November 1, at 1 p.m. with remarks from CEO Daniel Roby. It will remain on display through November 30, highlighting the thousands of North Texans experiencing homelessness.

“As colder weather approaches, our mission becomes even more urgent,” said Roby. “Every blanket, coat, and act of kindness can make a difference.”

The event aims to educate the public and demonstrate the power of community support in helping people find stability and permanent housing.
