Who are the homeless? 

Homelessness is a complex issue with no “one-size-fits-all” reason, and they span across every imaginable classification or group:

  • People with disabilities
  • People with mental health issues
  • People who have experienced domestic violence, rape, or other violence, including abuse as a child.
  • Veterans, usually as a result of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), sometimes as a result of untreated physical illness
  • Racial minorities
  • Sexual minorities
  • People with children. Women & children are the fastest-growing section of homeless people, but single, low-income fathers are at extremely high risk for homelessness, also, and receive very little in the way of attention and resources. Having two parents doesn’t make a family immune from homelessness either.
  • Children and teenagers, especially children of low-income families
  • Foster children
  • Elderly men, and elderly women
  • Illiteracy, lack of education, drug addiction, and alcoholism are also contributing factors
  • Anyone who has been imprisoned is many times more likely to become homeless
  • Anyone one of us…..
