    News coverage offers a steady stream of dramatic stories of violence, gangs and drugs in America’s public housing project that obscures the unique, compelling and varied personal stories of the residents living there. Heard captures the inspiring stories of four people who grew up in “the projects,” surviving and thriving despite – and often because of – the challenges they’ve had to overcome.
