John Leinenbach, 55, has been homeless for about 10 years.
He lived in a car and, eventually, on the street after a divorce and a stack of medical bills left him unprepared. These challenging conditions are only exacerbated by the cold and wet season.
On the street, Leinenbach relies on a large plastic bag he uses as a sleeping sack to keep him dry, as well as a sleeping mat made of grocery bags to provide padding.
