ALAMOSA — When the topic of La Puente — a large, local non-profit with a network of programs serving some of the Valley's most vulnerable people — is brought up in a public forum, a question will sometimes come up regarding what efforts La Puente is making to help people who are unsheltered become more self-sufficient and independent. The answer to that question is "a lot is being done and with increasingly good results," as was indicated in a recent conversation with Callie Adams, director of outreach at La Puente Home, and Sean Weiland, a case manager with La Puente's Employment Readiness program.
