Outside the town of Lakewood New Jersey, across from this intersection...
70 people live at this homeless camp in the woods
Some people have lived here for years and consider it their home
The camp is run by Reverend Steven Brigham and welcomes residents from all walks of life
Daily essentials
Elwood Hyers lives here and decorated the outside of his shanty with stuff he found behind a Dollar Store
Elwood lives with Cynthia Vellinga who decorated the inside
Car batteries rigged up for power
The living room
Even with all the rain from Irene the inside is dry and smells like old smoke
The chimney design to keep the place from burning down in the winter
A wash house
kitchen under a tarp
Food comes in sporadically, like these baked goods from a local grocery store
There are public facilities like toilets
