One homeless that trains are now women about 10 percent according to the v. A.

Got out of the business you know when i was growing up theres no such thing as homes is necessary. And heads of people had problems you know skid row and these types of things out the whole farms and we didnt have a population was so big that we coined a phrase and named it homelessness you know and now its become ingrained in our society but we know that if we can get the attention to American People and if they can really understand. This one thing that you can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing. If we can get them to understand that and we can bring the solution because everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it is. Were not. Its grew out of your.

I woke up under 2 or 4 inches of snow. On the pandemic no certainly no borders and just lying to nationalities. As a marine. We dont look like seeing the whole world needs to be. Judged as coming every crisis with this system things. We can do better we should be doing better. Everyone is contributing each or own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been massive so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that were in it together. The 1st night i was almost. That was a scary. Person. Now is because. I didnt have this job with carter hanging gilts right like. A. Theres old kinds of scary people out here. Carol you know i mean theres all kinds of scary people right and im from the mountains im from up in the mountains and then i get dropped down out here is.

Him cut down a tree last thing he remembered when the tree hit the ground so he got parallel. He died i was in prison he. Was to. My mom she died a double pneumonia in 2005. But. Thank you lord for be my friend says he holds near again in the love your brother. Thank you for helping me thank you for being mum. And i will get by another day i will get by another day because i will. If you had a magic wand waving giving everyone. Would you get. My family back. To my grandmas. Or have. You want you know i just looked. At my girl back you made me write that. You. Dont. Really think. I didnt mean it but. I know youre not dude i know it. Might you wanted to know. So i said that. Magic. And weve done has owed. Me if you want to know what the right. Chord beautician know this now you my foo says nothing records the affairs of a sad life as a graphic view of the human body in a psychological sense especially to people that are beef deprived early. Well then create conditions for themselves that will keep the definition going. Because the way to cope with emotion that aeration for example might become maybe to be get very hostile. If you are still going to be rejected. And thats going to reinforce your sense of being rejected in the 1st place. For you my to deal with the pain that some very will turn to addictions and all the addictions are always about pain and my mantra is not why the addiction but why the pain and im sure that thats true physiologically psychologically spiritually. So then people started engaging additions as a way of dealing with their pain or that addiction with their 1st true that i state that. Because you know theres going to be with an addict the reason of these so its very difficult and painful to do so but for the addict even forces that im alone and over there for me and which makes them further. Inclined to engage in addictive behavior to soothe that pain a sex trade worker a 27 year old said to me when i asked her what heroin did for her she said the 1st and i did heroin it felt like a war so. I was just saying she experienced a sense of love and connection which is what the endorphins do in the brain. And a guy and he talks a few years of 06 was something muscles have to scars hearing everything but if i was walking towards me in an alley id run the other way when i asked him whether theyre into for you and he said i dont tell you this doc was like when you 3 years old and youre shaving because youre sick as a kid and your mother wraps you know one blanket put you in your lap and you just dont want chicken soup thats what their own feeling. Is that i would love. You know then you ask why cant people give it up they cant give it up because the only way they found that they can have pain relief and i pleasure and delight and reward and that sense of connection. So homelessness in the chronically homeless may be seen as a coping mechanism. Thank you sir. You say all of the charity there is day and. There was. A surprise or not coming your re a lot of that. Is the arts facility is what we call a low demand shelter their very low demand is that we dont ask you to do anything its just that theyve been ordered to walk through the door other than their security and behavior guidelines for us the definition of loaded been sheltering pleads that were not requiring any partizan patient in a program or service in order to be in the building there is not going to be a requirement for you to be sober to be in the building you can come in and under the influence of drugs or alcohol we just cant have you bringing it in with you so its an opportunity to work with our clientele on sobriety issues and wed much rather have them inside the building and under the influence than in the safety concern on the all salvageable. What weve got right now is welcome to our 3rd floor this is our dormitory floor here at the arch we were originally constructed on this property is a 100 bed facility and they knew when they built that it was under built probably didnt know that it was in those under built as it actually is today we sleep 230 min in this facility every night versus the 100 beds that we were created with but were going to take a look at the dormitories themselves during the nicely were going to sleep 100 minutes here there are Case Management clients there in a plan theyre in a program theyre working on some goals that they step through their program it may be in comes to build the it may be sobriety theres a lot of different kinds of things that Case Management will address but over night they get to sleep in our dormitories. Which are bunk bed style we have some storage and underneath each bed they love being able to store their own stuff and because theyre in our Shelter Program in our Case Management program each bed is assigned overnight to a specific individual so well have on this floor there are 100 beds and then overnight the way we get to the 230 is we also have some mats that go down the floors and were sleeping in places in this building that we were never really intended sleep including our lobby our 2 Conference Rooms as well as our dining room. In our overall population profile is a 35 to 45 year old caucasian male struggling with Mental Health drug and alcohol addiction we see a lot of veterans in that mix too and then weve got a lot of women and children although this is im in the overnight shelter the demographic for homelessness. Across the nation has changed in austin so different and i think thats one of the things that we as a community have got to address is the systemic generalization of homelessness and 3 generations of people walking through our doors sometimes during the day and its just something weve got to get on. So prince this is a shelter provider but were also a Housing Provider we recognize the necessity of shelter but we do look at shelter as a bandaid to the issue of almost really the solution for homelessness is house if youve got limited housing opportunities youve got limited opportunities to house the homeless so its really been a push in our community to get more Housing Stock on the ground so that we can solve homelessness and not just bandaid it was shelter. Without housing report was we put it out in 2006 we formed rat. And made 2005 and immediately started. Funding trends and Affordable Housing and both were all through the u. S. D. A. U. S. Department of agriculture and urban through housing and urban development because we wanted to look at we know the shelter system started in the late 82 early 83 and by mid 1983 was across the country by 1987 the federal government had passed almost as a Major Program of their. What the hell happened right before that. Draws in conflict known as not going to is now a very hot you tell you what you need to do and it is america in 2020 summit. Its the bolshevik revolution in 1007. 100 wrong when old rules just dont call. Me. Yet to shape out these days become active. And engaged in equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. Media and as a by john its closer to all out war as that conflict i would not go to as a 2nd week report from inside the disputed caucuses territory.
