they wouldn't be sleeping there if kasim Reed did not close down the homeless shelters. ever since that crooked mayor close down the homeless shelters. And put all these people on the street and claimed they had diseases. There has been so many homeless living in the train station and on the street you're supposed to help people. not put them on the street and it was not the city of Atlanta that was taken care of the homeless shelter. He claimed that he wanted the building to turn into a fire station and on till now that building is still vacant. and former mayor Reed is under investigation but a whole slew of laws that he broke while being mayor. Including handing out contracts to friends at Atlanta Airport. giving jobs to family using citizens money to pay his brothers water bill while everybody else is water is being shut off. Giving unauthorized pay raises so the employees of Atlanta which day were rescinded. But you have people out here homeless and starving. as you see the rich get richer and the poor will always stay poor and he's still under investigation.
This is has been topic of discussion for years and the problems get worse with the homeless because the true cause is not been addressed, mental illness and health! 90% of the people who are homeless are suffering from mental health issues or drug illnesses! Until America see this as the problem first and began to help those with these issues the problem is going to continue to grow
Right you’re absolutely right there is no help for the mentally ill out there I lived out there forever and when I moved out to Denver, there is a lot of homeless here however, they offer housing. They offered all kinds of mental health services and help that you just don’t get back there and I think it’s really sad. I think it’s very sad.
Public housing doesnt solve the problem..We need more quality jobs theirs too many low paying jobs that can't keep up with the housing... Georgia state minimum wage is $5.15 the fuck is that? You can't even buy a tacobell combo with that...
Although that is part of the problem, just raising the hourly rate won't fix it. We need to fix the whole economy. Tax the rich yes, the fact that the rich are getting richer while poverty is increasing says something.

Why don’t they set up tiny house villages ?? They work in other states . Why can’t the Georgia big wheels help people ? Look up how other states do them they actually work
So many judge the homeless. That angers me. Yes many need to be held accountable for their actions. However, these are still "HUMAN BEINGS". I give to any of them as much as I can, and I don't do it for everyone to see either. I do it from the heart, and because I have love and GOD in my heart. If they take the money and do bad stuff with it, I pray they don't, and I tell them to "do good", I'm ok because I know I gave with good intentions, and it's on them if they choose to do bad with it.
THE PEOPLE WHO SLEEP OUTSIDE AND IN SHELTERS ARNT THE ONLY HOMELESS HERE IN ATLANTA THEY PPL OUTSIDE ONPY MAKE UP 30% of the homeless .... THERE A HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF HOMELESS PEOPLE, youth , FAMILIES AND ELDERS ..... living in hotels and motels , in cars/vans and with family/ friends. There’s no help here in Metro Atlanta . 1 out of every 10 homeless here actually get help. The rest of us get denied or the help basically inaccessible.... even simple gov help like food stamps is impossible To get accepted into here .
Help those who may want to work get work. I'm talking about those who may have criminal records, and it may be hard to find employment. Help them please. There are many out there like this.

One major problem is even when getting help the homeless have no way of building credit or getting on there feet. The federal government has law in place you can not get bank account or credit building credit card or small loans without residential address. So even if homeless want to better they’re self, they can’t due to this law. No a PO Box or PMB is not residential address and won’t work

Im a senior and homeless. But I make my home out in the deep woods alone.why I dont use drugs or drink.and on fix in come.liveing in these woods is ruff but I make do.ok hey god takes care of me.
@@sarahbruce4397 , it seems that a lot of that 'loss of family' is because that homeless person had mental illness or substance abuse issues. When they alienate themselves from family because they have uncivil behavior like lying, stealing, assault, no work ethic, they become more than family can deal with and it breaks the family relationship. They often do it to themselves by taking advantage of family members until nobody can stand to be around them anymore. It's very sad, but they choose to be that way. How can you help a person who won't help themselves and doesn't want to change, doesn't want to give up the substance addiction or seek mental help?
Black men use use use and use until they have no one left to use and then they just live outdoors..if Atalanta doesn’t get a hold of this immediately will get out of hand like skid row in Los Angeles
Some women use use use and until no one left to use. I was walking the other day around in chamblee and walked passed a homeless woman sleeping on an air mattress outside. It's a lot of black men that don't meet the criteria that you are referring to. You are what you attract. Tbh it sounds a you problem and needing a better judgement of character.
@@johnnyp3839 you are a prime example of an uneducated black male . Did I say there are NO homeless women? How did you come up with that rebuttal ? The LARGEST proportion of the homeless are MEN and amongst men the largest proportion are black men. What exactly does that have to do with you seeing a homeless woman ?
Not true for all I was homeless and I had noone to care in my family and I made a way thru the grace of the most high. I prayed and got my mind together out there and I was blessed with some dedicated steps on my part. I still do what I can when I see my brothers out there hurting it's harder than u think.

Its illegal for Public housing to discriminate against men

Not in west virginia
Try getting public assistance as a man

Some decide to be homeless, because the don't want to assume responsibility for their life and well being.
The number one reason for being homeless is loss of family . Be compassionate please , some served America to only be abandoned
