Lisa Marshall

For over a decade, Lisa Marshall has been interested in the people most of us do not notice- those experiencing homelessness. Lisa began her work as a citizen volunteer, then an organizational volunteer and donor, and now runs her own nonprofit organization. After donating her time and philanthropic resources to establish St. Jude, a permanent housing facility in North Dallas, Lisa became interested in the public policy and carceral systems that surround those experiencing homelessness. She currently serves on the Dallas Citizens Homelessness Commission and, while managing a homeless advocacy nonprofit, Lisa is producing a documentary intended to spread awareness. She feels it is of dire importance to expose this broken system that continues to break the human spirit.
