This picture of soup kitchen The Catholic Worker, taken by Laurie Nixon, is one of the images featured in the show.

In early June, Jason Storbakken distributed disposable cameras to 10 homeless residents of New York City.

Storbakken, the director of chapel and compassionate care at The Bowery Mission and author of "Radical Spirituality: Repentance, Resistance, Revolution," directed each photographer to capture "things they hoped others might see."

Here, Storbakken has allowed us to run 17 photos from the project, along with the photographers' statements.
