The "Where to Eat, to Sleep, to Wash" Guide
Since 1990 the Community of Sant'Egidio has published a guide for the homeless which collects all the indispensable addresses of the useful services for people living on the street.
It has been nicknamed the
"Michelin guide for the poor" because it represents an indispensable guide to survival for those who are forced to live in hardship. The guide is published in Italy, in Rome and in Genoa.
