Homelessness affects us all. We pay higher taxes for people that are outside. Is by housing people, we save lives and we save money. Our communities are healthier and better if we solve homelessness. We need to prevent homelessness because the effects on, let's say, a child. Going into the homeless shelter, into the social services system. Can last a lifetime that trauma and they may never get out of it. But you have to look at it as homelessness affects you. And for every $100 increase in median rent, homelessness goes up 9%. If we do not fix the affordable housing crisis. If we do not get loud and change policy on the affordable housing crisis to prevent and solve homelessness. It's just gonna get worse.

Faith Over Fortune: A Call for Compassion⛪🤝 This video highlights the troubling disparity in Southern California, where megachurches thrive while homeless shelters remain scarce. We delve into the moral implications of prioritizing wealth over care and ask: What would Jesus say about this?

📄 This study by Earl J. Edwards explores the racialized nature of homelessness in the United States, focusing on the lasting impacts of the McKinney–Vento Homeless Assistance Act of 1987. By examining the dual public personas used in discourse—both colorblind and “underclass”—the article argues that homelessness policies continue to neglect root causes, disproportionately affecting Black Americans. The study uses the Public Identity Framework to reveal how these personas influenced public perceptions and reinforced structural barriers.
