Origin Story
In My Shoes began as a student-led initiative to better understand the emotional side of addiction recovery. After researching communities impacted by homelessness and substance use, we realized that communication and social inclusion were often missing from traditional support systems. This inspired us to create a tool that connects people through meaningful conversation.
