Finding Home: How Americans Prevail is an inspiring book by journalist Sally Ooms about people who are searching for, or trying to keep, a home, and about people who have come off their center and have righted themselves. These are everyday Americans… vets and foster kids, laid-off workers and single moms, retirees and small business owners… all who have faced down the problems society throws at them to not just cope, but thrive. Ooms has been a print journalist for 30 years, appearing in a myriad of publications as a reporter, correspondent, and editor, receiving awards for her editorial writing, spot news, features, and investigative reporting.
