Americans With No Address is a documentary that premiered at Harmony Gold in Los Angeles on October 3, 2024[1]. Narrated by William "Billy" Baldwin and produced by Robert Craig Films, this film explores the causes of the homeless crisis in the United States.[2] Over three weeks, the production team traveled across 20 major cities in 18 states by bus, gathering insights into the factors contributing to homelessness, including trauma, mental health issues, substance abuse, economic challenges and the lack of affordable housing.[2][3]

The documentary also serves as a companion piece to the narrative feature film No Address, which aims to raise awareness about homelessness. Both films include interviews with a diverse range of subjects, such as policy leaders, mission directors, clinical specialists and individuals who have experienced or are currently facing homelessness. The team ensured to capture a wide array of opinions across political spectrums to maintain objectivity in their findings.[2][3]

No Address incorporates several scenes from the documentary, providing a narrative perspective on the discussed issues. The documentary highlights the effectiveness of housing and supportive services as solutions to the crisis, mentioning organizations like The Salvation Army and the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul.

The goal of Americans With No Address is to foster empathy, raise awareness, and encourage community action towards supporting non-profits that offer real solutions to homelessness. The film envisions a future where individuals experiencing homelessness receive the necessary support to start anew with stability, housing and community support.[3][4]
