"Treat everyone with respect" Amen!!!
Awh my rabbits name is Chloe💞
That is what people say when the affected people are white!!!!!!! If they are any other race, the commenters write the most insulting and insensitive comments.
Where there is judgement there will be no mercy. Welcome to America
People Fall on Hard Times and being Homeless can Happen to Anyone. Just lose your Job and see how long you will Last before you are on the Streets.
Or get kicked out by a friend and have nowhere else but a shelter or your vehicle if you just happen to own 1 to get to work
Fall time job I like this job i.m poor mane popel i.love u to Pakistani
I lost my job and did not become homeless. I am also a single parent.😮
The man who died of smoke inhalation... He really died of trying to stay warm enough, not to freeze to death...may he RIP.
K Size truth
He is home now
Sad that people die when there are empty houses everywhere. Money addicted world
He died of poverty.
That’s the obituary.
Not a bad way to go.
You're doing the work of a saint, here, my brother.

I was living with my sister when she passed away I lost my home because my name was not on the lease thank God for Lebanon housing they help me get my Aparment in senor housing
So nice to see a town being compassionate with people who need help. :)
I am a 53 yr old single male. At one time not to long ago (about 3.5 - 4 yrs ago) I held 2 part time jobs, one was a 10yr job, and the other was 4 yr job, so these were not fly by night jobs, I was in it for the long haul, getting no overtime because both jobs are part time, but I worked equivalent of 40-45 hrs at $7.65 an hr bringing home an avg of $800 a month. I lived in my van not by choice but because it's what life gave me. I owed child support and was garnished $220 a mo, so that brought my living bring home wages to around $600 a month, to pay rent, gas for the van ($60 a week for driving time), bills, etc....there was no way I could pull off paying for rent, which starts of $450 a mo, and goes up from there and the avg. monthly rent is around $600, let alone the other stuff that came up in life on $600 a month alone.
I did this for 3.5 yrs, all finally paying the support for my child. After this I spent another approximately 6 months looking for a place and have since found a place to stay sharing rent, for the last 4 months now, but rent is sugnificatnly lower since we are shareing rent.
That all being said, I now have a job making $10 an hr, and as of just recently gotten my hours drastically cut down, from 35hr a week down to now 19hrs a week, but they are doing it store wide so it's not due to me or anything I did, it's jsut a cut in hours and is not known when it will get back to normal hours. But I now see myself looking at getting a second part time job again, giving me 2 part time jobs again.
On top of all this, I was informed that 1 our roommates has decided to move to Colorado to live which now leaves me and 1 other to pay for rent, which even with both jobs I cannot see budgeting that in, so once again I am faced with living in my van, with 2 part time jobs. It's not always something someone chooses in life, it's sometimes what life chooses for you.
Not everyone who is homeless or in a homeless state is there of their own accord, it's just what people are doing to survive and get by at the time.
I just want to say, please people do not consider "all" homeless or people in a homeless state, bad or leeches or bums, because I am living proof that there are those of us who are actually trying and do put back into society, and live what we call a "normal" life by our standards.
I will and have willingly told people when they ask if I live in that thing (thing being the van) I tell them yeah, and explain more why I am there, while they listen. Sometimes listening and trying to better understand people in this state of living, helps you or others understand better what's actually going on, instead of doing what SO SO SOOOOOOO many do in today's society and assumes the absolute worst in someone or something before actually knowing the facts. Try and be informed, rather than assuming things.
In the 1980s, I knew a guy who played sax in bars and night clubs on weekends and who did an MBA part time. He used his limited income to rent a room over some shops in a dreary suburban strip mall. That room stored his belongings, and the electronic equipment for his gigs. He lived in his van, which he also used to drive his equipment to gigs. Down the hall from the room he rented, was a toilet and sink. The fellow used to shower in the apartment of a former girl friend, who has been my wife of the last 28 years. The fellow living hand to mouth in this fashion I have just described, went on to a white collar career, and has been stably married for over 2 decades.
Easyrider: it is very valuable for people in your situation to share rent.
When your monthly income goes down, does your child support decline as well?
You used to make about $17000/year. $1301 of Social Security and $660 of income tax was taken out of that, leaving you with $15039/year. If you can't claim your kid for EIC purposes, you get no EIC. But if you can, you could get up to $3373/year, which would more than cover your child support.
I propose a flat tax of 33.33%, combined with giving everyone $6000/year, for a total of $17333/year.
I'm very compassionate towards all homeless people. I don't really care what got them there. There's some tent cities on the east coast, that if you stay off drugs & alcohol for 6 months I think it is, you can move into one of the rooms in the big house. I wish I could remember what the name of the place is. I saw it on one of these youtube videos.
Child support has not only destroyed a lot of families & destroyed a lot of mens lives. I think there needs to be vast reform in all of our govt policies. The materialistic greed is driving this dragon & the child support system & cps system is destroying families. I think the two go hand in hand.
I have a great deal of compassion for you. Stay on youtube & connect up with as many homeless as you can. Maybe in numbers the homeless can find ways to improve their situations.
Steve Easyrider77 "I lived in my van not by choice but because it's what life gave me", "it's sometimes what life chooses for you". You can either see you life from a reactive mindset,or a proactive mindset. In my 20's I tended to be more reactive and I found myself to always be struggling. It was only when I became more proactive that things got easier. I'm not exactly the most driven person either. I pretty much coast through life compared to my potential,but here I am 20 years later in a nice big house that I own,with all the toys. Everything is paid for. No one ever helped me and I never once expected anyone should. At the end of my 20's I could fit everything I owned in the back of a rusty old pick up. When I bought my house it kinda forced me to be a little more proactive and from then on I never struggled.
My point is: write your own story, don't let life write for you.
Steve Easyrider77 I agree. People who have the better cards dealt don't always have compassion for those who got the bad hands. I have a son who had two part-time jobs & was houseless a few months. He got a room,-mate & lived in an old duplex for several years then met a girl who was working on her assoc degree. They got married, he got a better job, she graduated & they just bought a nice house. Not super fancy but nice. Now their goal is to pay off the mortgage & have children. The fact theyve been unable to get pregnant is worse than any other issues they've had. It hurts the most. When he was homeless he could've came back to us 800 miles away but he needed to prove to himself I guess that he could take care of himself. The thing I tell him is it's not the land of opportunity anymore my parents had. They've dismantled the American dream & flooded our country with non-citizens & meager wages & out sourced manufacturing so that's not working people's fault. We all must pull together & do what we can to help one another because the govt does not have it's citizens best interest at heart. I got blessed because I bought an $18000 house in 1991 & had it paid off in ten years. It's not fancy but it's solid & paid off. The taxes are $800 a year & our utilities are about $120 a month. My husband & I both work so we have it better than a lot of people but I help a lot of people too. Two of my grandkids got on drugs & those two are struggling to maintain financially. They make it harder for the rest of us & I see them as selfish & immature. I have to balance my natural grandmother instincts with resolve to not let them take advantage of me. They get mad if I don't let them have money but I'm not going to work & have them blow it on stupidity or selfishness. I respect you for working two jobs. I don't know if you're interested in marriage but a good woman may help your life improve. Notice I said good woman. A selfish immature woman will only be a liability. God bless.
HOW CAN WE HELP??? What I've learned from these documentaries is a powerful lesson in compassion and it's also been a wake up call. I'm a Disabled Vet with a chronic illness. After a year full of tragedy (2018) I've realized I could easily be one of these people in the near future. So I'm going to do some research about homelessness in my city and see what I can do to make a difference. When I worked (I was a Financial Analyst at a large corporation), I was on the volunteer committee at my company. I helped build homes, deliver food, gather and pass out blankets, etc. Now I'm curious if there have been any improvements in the way my city deals with these unfortunate people because just sticking them in an overcrowded shelter and giving them soup every day is not going to help improve their lives!!! If there are good resources, then I want to help spread the knowledge to the homeless population that wants help. I encourage anyone else who ends this to do the same!!!
I left a great reply check the video at the top to see it
I'm a disabled veteran who was homeless in Keene for about six years, some of it spent camping in these very woods. I'm trying to get my robotics business off the ground, and will be launching a Kickstarter soon. If I am successful, I'll work on a solution, involving (at the very least) with employment and shelter. Any assistance you could render would be greatly appreciated.
No matter how much you try and help someone.. it's really really tough... my mother in law is in this video and right now she's doing amazing ! And still help peopel that haven't come as far as she has.. so I know first hand people are trying. Bless them all
Why are people homeless in New England? Maybe because it costs $800+/mo to rent a studio apartment the size of a closet.
@GiovannisSanctuary LMAO at you, why i am laughing at you, simple because you are a idiot. You think only liberal states have rent to high problems and you think its because of liberal politics, how fucking stupid are you? If it was up to Liberals, there would be rent controls but its not, we live in a capitalist system that says the government should not interfere let the markets regulate themselves. Put move to where the jobs are and when that happens, rent prices go up, it does not matter where the fuck you live. Get your facts straight before you come online spouting none sense.
Only in shitty places in NH. Otherwise it’s $1000/mo for a studio with $2,000 up front- most likely no pets (so ditch those dogbabies or be homeless!)& no utilities included, with a ton of competition with people with better credit history. Want a 1+ bedroom in NH? Grab a roomie. Otherwise, you’re pretty much fucked because you can’t be homeless here- you’ll get booted. You also can’t eat- you need a voucher to get into the pantries in many places. To get that voucher, you gotta sit in the welfare office for half-to most of the day, plus find your way there. There’s absolutely no handouts here; it’s dog eat dog. New Englanders are rough around the edges- not super friendly.
Sad.
average people are most essentially price out of the housing market there has to be limitations on what these landlords are price gouging.Limits must be set.
Mike, Socialism is no better. The old conservative liberal dichotomy has given way to capitalism versus socialism, respectively. But it's the same goddamn trap. You need to calm down.
In California, people are paying $1,200/mo. for a bunk bed & a locker. Some are women with children. HOW??? 😩💔😢
It's good to see these people who understand and want to help the homeless, as so often we see communities wanting to have the homeless moved out of the area.
I've spent years homeless in Keene, and I've always worked. I'm a disabled veteran. There are virtually NO services here to help homeless veterans.
Homeless people need compassion and housing..Utah did a great job of addressing that...everyone needs to follow their lead..
cyrano thanks..I also deleted..will try to find private message thingy
@Block this address its hacked Hacked hacked You need a conscience.
guys u r doing good work for the homeless people great job god bless you.
Good video. Well done. It would be nice if the 100 Days Shlter could extend to 180 days. It's pretty cold in NH for a lot more than 3 months.
Great video. I believe it is very effective in showing the causes, circumstances, expectations, and attitudes of the homeless. On the other hand, it allows the service providers and those who care about the homeless problem to share their experiences and their commitment to helping and giving hope for the homeless. A great tool to create awareness.
I have always thought rather you come from a silver spoon or live in a shot gun shack, you are still a human being first and fore most. My grandparents did not even know there was a Great Depression. They were living the poorest of the poor. However they would always impress upon me to treat all people with respect and to this day I live by my grandparents teachings
Just a thought; you should add some links to some of the organizations/groups/charities featured in this documentary so that people can learn more and possibly donate. The world/area needs more places like these shelters.
Good advice!
Behind it all although you may see it is rhe profit motive in these othanizations they cteate a numbers game move you in and out show as many numbers as they can and submit this to the state or other orgaizations to get more money when they have really helped far less people. Ive seen it and the truth is disgusting. put in short or crudely they make money off of the backs of homeless people. Call it what it is.
Hi from New Zealand,
Just breaks my heart when families with young children are living in these conditions, children don't deserve to be brought up under these conditions. Where the hell did the world go wrong to end up like this and homelessness is worldwide now?
Americas unfettered capitalist system has allowed a select few to amass billions while pay remains low yet cost of living grows at a unobtainable rate.
@@jamesplaut1515 wrong. Thank dems. Did you move to Venezuela?
Lack of love and empathy for one another .. symptoms and disease
Well done, and so empathetic. You guys in Keene are an inspiration. Thanks so much.
awww, Carrie died after this was filmed .. I hope the rest of them are okay :-(
I get sick of hearing people say "They just need to get a job!". How in the hell are they supposed to get notified if they get the job if they don't have an address or access to a cell phone? How can they go to an employment agency when they haven't showered and then interview without nice clean, pressed clothes a fresh shave and haircut? People don't think of these types of situations before they run their mouth. Not every homeless person's situation is the same, as we all should know....so we must inform the public! End of rant! 😊
I agree
Exactly! What jobs are they supposed to get? People in homes can't get jobs, so how are the homeless going to get hired? You have to have a local industry that needs low skilled cheap labor. When i worked in a homeless shelter in Georgia, our guests could pretty much always get jobs at the two poultry plants in town. Obv not the most desirable work, but if you don't have an industry like that, where are they going to go for a job?
Exactly
its so odd just now finding this video after moveing to a town so close to a city i enjoy so much i really wish the best fro those who need the help out there. i even know those three boys and there family from 2:34
Me n my husband r on the verge of being homeless high rent high utilities in Stoddard new Hampshire near Keene can't afford to pay for anything hardly much less fix up n decorate my 900 dollar a month crap trailer n some people in Keene r heartless calling the police to homeless people lying on them there r plenty of forclosed homes in NH so y are there many homeless people here
Cause them idiots are hypocrites against homeless ppl
Foreclosure has destroyed a lot of lives. It was by design. Real Estate lobbyists often use donations to own politicians, and prevent affordable housing from ever getting built. I noticed the subject never came up in New Hampshire, at least in the video here.
Hi,I'm a Christian born again,I'm not rich,but for the Glory of God,I give food and used clothes to te homeless people,please pray for the homeless people,and for this guy,thanks a lot and God bless you,Jesús is coming soon!,shalom Ubrahá,my greetings from Bogotá Colombia, South América.

Sometimes, homeless IS a choice! I have, at times, chosen it myself! It can be an adventure out there. To me, it's "urban camping" and, if done well, can lead to substantial savings in your cost of living! Later in life, after making some very poor choices, I became homeless and 3000 miles away from home. It took me 9 years to crawl out of that mess I made for myself. I've seen both sides and I know the difference. Sometimes, homeless IS a choice.
But most of the time it isn’t. The vast majority of people who are homeless aren’t seeking an “urban camping adventure.”
Especially in -10 degrees plus windchill.
I choose not to be homeless. But I have been close...😮
so Humble Up, show up to work ahead of time, kiss the bosses rear, spend less than you make, maybe skip having children.
Skip the restaurants, 'yep, McDonalds too. Skip buying coffees
Eat and drink only what comes out of your kitchen, ONLY!
And you'll still have a ruff go of it.
Show your kids this video - living outside sucks
i'd rather be poor and surrounded by love of a family than rich and lonely....its a life choice for sure
@@yardfowl3149 From JMHS '59 in RVA? Bless you. Hope everything is going well.
@@carolevanlandingham8529 no mamm, from Troy Highschool, Troy MT. class of 94. I have a unique name, ironic that you may of known someone with the same name :) I'm 45 and have only met 1 other Ira in my time. Take care and God bless!
@@yardfowl3149 I'm really blown away by your and the other Ira's exact name; however, the other gentleman would be about 79 now. Take care.
Skip the drugs...
I read what the gentleman said on living I. his van and then staying with roommates, back in the car. again . That's true, people have jobs but can't afford the high rent, and us seniors living O. fixed incomes. Fixed means you might get a raise every 2 yrs. on SSI, then your Social Security people get.I live on 733 + 22, then Food Stamps. So I have to stay with family . Upstairs 14 steps with my bad legs and back. But no place else to go I. Oregon. Thanks to God I have a roof.
733 a month is not enough to live on.How sad,
@@janemann3045 Thanks for your reply. Have a blessed day, if you can
Exactly. $2/yr. "cost of living increase" is no match for the actual rise 👆 in the cost of living. Annual rent increases alone are sometimes as much as $75 . Which is the breaking point for some ppl. on fixed incomes which takes them from living indoors to living outdoors😔
*Everyone lives on a “fixed income.”* It’s called a paycheck.
@@tundrawomansays5067 Thanks for reply
I'm seeing that many of the causes of homelessness are the same everywhere. I think greed is at the root of it.
if the usa had jobs like it used to and not $9.00 / hour jobs with real salaries and health benefits this would END homelessness...for ever!
It's not greed if the landlord needs the tenant's rent so that he can pay the mortgage and maintenance on his property.
I live in salt lake. Terrible homeless problem.
Human being problem.there.fixed it for you.
Addiction is usually the result of childhood trauma.
100%! For that very reason, the term "addiction" is a misnomer, and only serves to obfuscate the true causes of people's suffering, which does not help them in developing a sense of agency in their lives.
Yeah but not always I can contest
Mad respect for Tim! He retired last year
Wow I live in Vermont and I’ve Ben to Keene and Manchester and wood never gave this a thought about people down that way
You know people need support to make the right choices in life ,no one can do it alone ,Life these days is less and less supportive, It's keep your hands off of my pie and grab what you can ,regardless of who suffers ,,and that's what big time wrong in the world right now ,plus that makes people homeless ,and then that is criminalised ,it's wrong wrong wrong ,People should be cared about and cared for not kicked to the gutter and constantly pushed away any where out of sight
Konstantin Kokkorakis out of sight out of mind that's what. Everyone but a few want to blame the victim to these tragedy that befall on them & could happens to anyone but 👍for you for being able to empathy s with these people rather than dish them like society does .
You can't help people who refuse to help themselves. I will absolutely offer a hand up to anyone making serious efforts to better their position, but i will not share my resources with those who insist on staying on bottom, then come looking for everyone else to fix it for them.
I'm Disabled, a Veteran, and have been homeless for two years. I'm not a drug addict, just lost my housing two years ago when the apartment complex I was living at in Mesa Arizona was sold to a buyer in Toronto, who promptly notified the tenants living with Section 8 or VASH assistance they had the option to move out or pay full market value rent without assistance.
I found while looking for a place to move to, that most low income housing in my area was eliminated in this same fashion by greedy investors and was unavailable to find another place to live.
I bought an old van on payments and was forced to start living in it. I did so for a year and was offered a tiny fiberglass trailer on payments. I found that the person I bought it from had mislead me on a clear title, and have had difficulty getting it registered and legal to tow. I have been stranded at a Recreation Area, above Kingman Arizona for seven months now trying to get repairs done to my van. It is no longer safe to drive, and definitely not suitable to tow my trailer. It has been a living hell, upto 128 degrees at times this summer, now dealing with freezing cold at night and heavy winds. Every time I try to get some repairs made, something comes up. I bought a used generator which failed in a couple weeks, had to buy another one, then my emotional support dog Archie was badly bitten and required veterinary care, my air conditioning compressor failed in my Van, I cut my knuckle to the bone and ligaments on some glass discarding some trash which resulted in an Emergency Room Visit.
I have been trying to get help, and have not had much success. I was accepted for PATH Rapid Rehousing through the Catholic Charities, but have searched all over Mohave County but found I cannot afford an apartment on my disability income. I have been looking for a room for rent, but no luck.
So now I'm in a panic as I was notified by the Catholic Charities Caseworker handling my information, had their computer stolen and now my personal information has been compromised.
I am on a waiting list for Section 8, basically started over. I did not choose to be in this homeless situation, and have been doing my best to deal with everything I have experienced the past 2 years. I had to literally give everything I owned away when I lost my apartment EVERYTHING!, I did try and keep my many tools, but those to were lost to a "friend" who was going but keep them until I get settled, but would never respond to my calls or texts.
I am absolutely sick of my life. I don't live anymore, I merely exist, and it's not much of an existence at that. I have not showered in nearly 8 months, and haven't bathed in over two years since losing my apartment. My teeth are broken, many missing, and I broke another one recently, not looking forward to the toothache that's coming. I am nearly blind in one eye and can only see clearly with glasses, but I lost one of the lenses. I have reached out to every VA organization or service center I know of for help, but am ineligible.
I worked for the Air Force starting my senior year of high school, as a civilian employee and for the next decade.
I also simultaneously served 6 years in the Air National Guard, and was honorably discharged, but still don't meet the requirements as I was on active duty for well over a year with Avionics Technical School, and was activated during Desert Storm, but could not deploy with my unit, as I was a 3 level technician straight out of school.
I have no family for support, no friends, only a few people I have met while being homeless. I have had a fellow vet brings some water bottles and food items several months back, and just today was given a propane tank, heavy sleeping bag, and nice winter coat by Catholic charities, these were definitely a blessing and will definitely help, but I don't see how I can ever get out of my situation as my limited income doesn't suffice to handle the many needs I currently have trying to get out of my homeless situation along with handling my major dental problems, lack now of a safe vehicle, and trailer registration.
Any day the area I am staying may be closed, the BLM Rangers have told me they plan to close access to this Recreation Area soon. I will be in an Emergency Situation when they do, and have no idea yet what I will do .
This video reflects reality.
speaking as a homeless person from keene, it barely scrapes the top of our personal hell we are in. keene shelters won't let me in because of my age. i'm 18 and can't work due to my severe ptsd. i'm in the woods until further notic.
@@chronic-crystalrogers9600 OMG I am so sorry I wish you were near me here in West Virginia I would help you. No human being a child of God should be sleeping alone in the woods. This hurts me to read your comment. I think of my own grandbabies I would die for them. Ptsd is a horrible disease . I went through severe depression and still have anxiety . I hate the way human beings are being mistreated. Please keep pushing forward, I can't imagine your pain. God bless you.
This is strange I lived with these people in shelter in keene. Hydie has taken care of me like a mother. Her son just died of an overdose he was my brother. Many of these people we know and love are gone. Homeless doesn't mean we are different from anyone else. Keene wants homeless to go somewhere else basically they send u to another far away town. They do feed all of the hungry very well though.
It IS political !! You bet ! There's a stereotype that these leaders use as an excuse to let people die. Or move them out of town, completely forgetting these are locals, American citizens !! There's not enough housing in ratio to people who are potential tenants. It's becoming politically correct to attack, abuse, refuse to hire,or just fire the homeless. Can't attack a non- White?? Go after someone who's homeless. No one will mind,right ??
I personally think that we are all responsible for our neighbor......who is our neighbor......anyone who isn’t our family. However , if ones choose to do things that perpetuate their homelessness, that releases us from responsibility. The fact is that society has broken down and tragically the result is mental health issues, immorality, drugs and alcohol, and subsequently homelessness. The US needs more very low income housing.
22:23 Every act of kindness no matter how small or insignificant it may seem, ABSOLUTELY makes a difference in someone's life! Even a smile 🤗 or kind words can be the difference between "hopelessness" and HOPE! Please never stop showing others how much you care🙌❤️
20:30 "It's a free country ain't it? Well it ain't free, I'm telling ya"
Exactly😔
There is no free lunch unless you are on EBT and the taxpayer provides for you.
40+ years of " trickle-down- economics and stagnant wages, and climbing costs of living, high rents. California is unlivable,filthy, violent. Elites running the cities don't care. They have their gated communities. Private guards. They steal the housing funds.
I use to camp in tent city when I first arrived in Keene. Most of the Homeless people here in Keene either have drug and alcohol issues or severe mental health issues. The answer is not more homeless shelters, but habitats for human beings to live, grow their own food, build there own cabins, fish, or whatever it takes to survive and become self sufficient. Shelters may keep people alive in cold weather, programs may help with resources, but it also makes them more dependent and domesticated. Most homeless persons avoid homeless shelters, and sleep outside. Who wants to be around noisy, violent drunks?
My advice, bring back homesteading.
I am very aware of the issues surrounding homelessness, I’ve been homeless many times in my life.
Mark my words..... if you keep slapping bandaids on this issue, it will never get solved, and will continue to grow.
There is plenty of viable land, so there is no excuse for homelessness in America.
The system doesn’t want to cure homelessness, it doesn’t want people to become self reliant, it wants them to be dependent domesticated, easily controlled herd animals.
It wants them to be slaves to corporations, and good little docile consumers.
I’ve studied this issue for about 20 yrs now, and traveled to nearly every state in this country from east to west and north to south.
These are the facts!
GiovannisSanctuary most of the homeless here and everywhere are on drugs and have mental illness issues. Also, it isn’t that easy to get a job when ye are homeless. Sure, someone might hire you to do some land scape for a few days, but not enough to get off the street. My point is that, most of these people couldn’t obtain a steady job if they wanted to. These days it just isn’t as easy to get a job like when I was growing up. Corporations are fussy and they’ve got tons of people to choose from.
Sure, there are jobs if you have a steady employment record, if you have a reliable car, a college degree.
Personally, I would discourage people from going to college, because in college nowadays, you are just paying them to indoctrinate you with their insipid sjw egalitarian dogma.
It’s like I said above. The system isn’t interested in solving the homeless issues. If it did, it would bring back homesteading. It would allow these people to build their own cabins in the woods, grow their own food, hunt, fish etc.
The system cares about one thing, and one thing.... Auto domestication. It cares about keeping you dependent on it for everything.
@@J.T.Stillwell3 You would have the same problems. Most people don't have a clue how to live free if you put them in a place where they had plenty of woods a lake or river to fish and trap they would starve to death in a month. Besides I would like to be able to go to the woods and enjoy camping, canoeing, hunting,fishing, hiking without running across a bunch of assholes claiming this is their property. That land that you talk about is everyone's land to enjoy within limits if we all used it like they did back in the 1800's in a month there would be none. Overpopulation is real and getting worse every year.
If you give land to someone, that is what you are saying to do, who is to say how they treat it? Homesteading is good for some people and it isn't for others. So your idead of viable land is to ruin what natural resources there are in the US (streams, lakes, reservoirs, forests)? You think forests would remain standing without fires burning out of control?
Why do something as drastic as that when people in New York have gardens on top of buildings? Nothing prevents people in tent cities or "sanctuary" shed cities from building small gardens. If people who are living in tents or sheds get tired of it and want to homestead.. then let them use their legs and go or just build a small garden. Some people couldn't handle it and would return to getting something for nothing. No rent involved in squatting, no property taxes involved in tent cities.
@@J.T.Stillwell3 - Homesteading is not the answer nor is it the solution to the reasons or problems of homelessness. People can always build gardens where they are at, even on paved parking lots - but they don't. If you give homeless people land, are you in turn just going to write off loans people have on their houses? If so, why not just put people back into their homes/apartments. So homesteading on free government land is not the solution. If people want the solution to each individual homeless circumstance, they need to speak to the individual and not carpet bomb them all with the same "solution" because they all don't have the same problem.
I agree about society - the system - and long term objectives of politicians. I disagree about going to college, but agree about their corriculum.
jms_ wttrs I agree with some of your points, but asserting that homeless people can grow enough to feed themselves on public pavements is laughable. First off, it’s illegal to make a garden on property you don’t own. I do agree however, that people are homeless for a variety of reasons, and those reasons need to be addressed. Alcoholism, drug abuse, mental illness etc. I don’t think homeless shelters are a real solution (clearly). It’s like trying to treat aids with cough sirup. Again, I think most homeless people could benefit from homesteading. The requirement could be that one mixes their labor with the land. That they take pride in it. That they invest in it by creating a residence, crops, water well etc. Shelters and other such programs just institutionalize and teaches the homeless nothing about personal responsibility and self sufficiency. What many homeless people need is self sufficiency not hand outs. Give a man a fish and he’ll keep coming back, teach him how to fish, and grant him the ability to fish and he won’t need you anymore. Let him live on land that isn’t in use and he’ll learn to live off of it. Keep kickin him off land and forcing him to move, and you’ll never solve the problem of homelessness. This is a lesson they’ve learned very well in Portland OR. See Dignity village.
RSD is Reflex Sympathetic (nervous system) Disease. It is NERVE PAIN that Never let's up. a Nightmare for the person who has it. Constant Chronic Nerve Pain. She needs help.more than some. Pain is a game changer. You can See it in her face. can't believe she can't get D.A.
Rsd is reflex sympathetic dystrophy. The sympathetic nerve system is affected. Its very painful. I have had it for over 20 yrs. Many hospitalizations for treatment. It is a nightmare.
Construction of apartments had stopped in the early 80's, at least in California. And seniors and disabled people are the fastest growing demographic for becoming homeless !! It's not just younger people on drugs or alcohol. Or mental health problems. Lack of decent jobs and manufacturing here in the States. That must be reversed ! In a First World nation like America, this is isn't normal, and should not be happening.
OMG, I have RSD also. It is a debilitating crippling pain condition. It is recognized by SSDI now. I hope the lady finds the right lawyer to help her out. I was a healthy 50 year old when I was taken out by the condition in 2014. Never missed a day of work in 36 years of uninterrupted work history. 1 day you are on top of the world, next day you are merely existing.
The system for ssdi can take up to 2 years then still you may declined in the end.
This is why I tell people it's great to go back to basics this is why I want to live in my van which I'm doing right now no more rent no mortgage no people telling me how to live to also my to live or other alternative ways to live but the masses are dumped and programmed to go back into paying bills that's why people remain homeless or struggling doing free for jobs which I will never do
People are not paid enough
The police guy was on point, hats off to you brother..
I want to know how we can help the homeless people in the winter? Even if it's something small. Please share your ideas.
What do they need the most?
DEFINETLY SOCKS,RADIO,FLASHLIGHT,BLANKETS,DEODRANT ,WIPES ,STUFF LIKE THAT,IF U HAVE OLD CHEAP MOBILES ARE HANDY CAN AT LEAST GET CALLS FRM SERVICES,WITH ALL WALKING ON THE STREETS YER FEET GET MESSED UP,OR PPL HAVE WRONG CLOTHING GET CAUGHT OUT,

Thank you! Really appreciate it!
Robert Robrahn
Thank you! Really appreciate it!
I tried helping by making mittens for the homeless...they were very warm....but I was told they don't want them. Oh well....I gave it a shot.
mellima shelters in the winter often have coat drives. They also are in need of basic toiletries such as toothpaste, brushes, soap, deodorants, body wash, and some forget about the need for women: pads and tampons. They also need warm winter blankets, pillows, and new toys since it will be around Christmas for the children. I used to work at a domestic violence shelter. Vinyl mattress covers are also appreciated to keep things sanitary, twin size of course.
the corporations that moved all the manufacturing jobs to china should pay these people a monthly income
erdingtown. Why on earth would they do that? The whole point for corporations is to grab up all they can from us and to hell with helping anyone but themselves out!
they moved for cheap labor & higher dividends
what about the illegal immigrants that these corporations hire so that they can increase their profit margins? we have too many unskilled workers and not enough low skilled jobs around anymore. everything from farming to fast food is becoming automated, welcome to the new age......
Thank Saint Ronnie, the patron saint of no jobs, a gutted blue collar solid working class and products that were made in America back when “Durable Goods” *WERE.*

The one thing about homelessness is it can happen to anyone at anytime.
It can happen to anyone homelessness.
bullshit, it cannot happen to anyone, some of us know how to manage our lives.

@@jenniferdellacalce5617 America is no longer a good place to live. Greed and corruption just like Central America, South America and Mexico. The Dream is dead.
@@rcas350pilot8 Many people are leaving the country because of all the reasons stated here. Both parties are epic fails and totally rotten !! There WAS virtually no homeless people or high rents like nowadays. Not everyone can fly a helicopter or plane- great money in that career. But not enough housing in itself is a major problem. Millions more people here in America, and not enough jobs or housing for everyone, so of course prices are high NOW. Demand outstripped supply, starting in 1980. Downhill ever since !!
We've all made our bad choices . . . leading into homelessness. It comes down to motivation in finding yourself a way out. That may be a chenge, if your health is troubling, challenged !
It's not ALWAYS about bad choices ! It's often bad circumstances as well. Good jobs have left the country. Prices high for most things. Seniors and disabled people are the highest growing demographic for becoming homeless, remember that ! The government, and all state governments, have no desire to end homelessness. It's a racket,in many places. People are wondering just why this nation can't get it together anymore. There's this myth that you can arrest and imprison your way out of this. Jobs and housing, or this will get worse. And worse. Until total societal collapse.
I think my husband's family came from there. Sturtevant. There is a Sturtevant in the Civil War there too. I feel bad , that homelessness is everywhere. East and West. Godspeed something...
hi i live in claremont nh and i was told that there is alot of homeless here. I dont seem to see any but maybe we are a place you can look into.
I have been looking for a job since 2013 in New England and nothing! NOWHERE!
Ive been to keene its next to the state line my friend moved back up there when i was younger, everyone was wicked nice compared to nj, i seen 1 fight the hole time and it was 2 girls.
Hey we are sweethearts here in NJ!!
Homeless people break my heart..however, one lady said she had a mother, another said she goes to her children for a few dollars now and then. All of them MUST have a relative - where are they? Why are they not helping by taking them in? No family member or friend of mine would be left on the street, regardless of any circumstance. The shame would kill me!!!!!!!!!!!
Ha! In 2008, at the start of the great recession, my own parents refused to let me stay with them in Florida, their winter home. Wouldn't let me stay in the house up north, so I lived in my van. Skilled carpenter, couldn't find work, had $2,500.00 to my name after layoff, ended up camping for several months. Tough love, they called it.
I so agree. I cannot imagine giving my homeless mother a couple of bucks and sending her on her way. I cannot imagine letting one of my children be homeless, with my grandchildren no less. Even if you don't have a couch for them to sleep on, you can make up a little bed on the floor with blankets and a pillow.
Probably because they are addicted to drugs or alcohol. That causes a lot of drama.
It's not as simple as you think, if something happened to me I wouldn't really have anyone to help or anything
I've been homeless for 2 years now.
New Hampshire would be beyond miserable in the winter, we lived in NH for 4 years I think summer would be nasty too with the humidity 🥲
We must admit that some homeless people are a risk to society. However, we should take the time to show love and compassion because there are persons there who are trying to get back up.
We most admit that some domiciled individuals are a risk to society.

I've never heard of a homeless shelter in Keene 4 yes later
What if homeless people networked across the U.S. and agreed to all migrate to one city? In some smaller cities, they might even become the majority, and therefore the most powerful voting block. In bigger cities, the pressure would be so great the city planning department would be so overwhelmed they'd have no choice but to provide more services, perhaps even housing. Seems to me the only effective power homeless people in the U.S. have is their numbers. My advice is to organize this power.
It does matter of what and why a person ends up homeless because there are a lot of cases the reason for homelessness is do to addictions etc. If a person refuses to acknowledge the problem the the problem will not be fixed but expand into a greater problem.
Whatever the cause of homelessness, they all still need a place to live, that's the point. It's not like the drug addicts should stay on the streets while the "worthy" homless are helped. Once housed, they are all going to have different challenges to address in order to stay stable and not go back into homelessness. That's where your addiction treatment will come into play for some.
@@freakinfrugal5268 Addicts are far more likely to take advantage and not want to do anything about the issue. Maybe there should be a chance to change but you can't just keep giving stuff with no expectation of some progress

Never lend a friend more than 10 bucks.
one thing the government should do is stop all corporate welfare and instead use that money to help people, how many millionaires out there get subsidies and pay there employees wages to low to have a half decent life . greed is a big part of the problem.if your employees are making you wealthy ,should you not be grateful to them, narcissist ,me me me
you know those little houses that seemed like a good idea that you told Dad you know at least they put the homeless somewhere and that alleviated probably a lot of the problem maybe we should look into something like that you know another States you're right lady
Take away the thing called GREED then everything will be affordable like housing , food etc. It is this thing called GREED that makes life miserable. Greedy landlords who raised up the rent and push people on the streets.
Si hermano.
We will all fall on hard times.. But we need to fall on te rock JESUS CHRIST. I have been in these situations and on the street with 3 children and pregnant.. I continued my CYCLES because I continued my thoughts and bitterness and unforgiveness. I wanted to die as a young mom at 24 and the thoughts of killing my children and there fathers for us not to go through anymore pain.. I cryed out with everything in my soul to God.. I asked if he was real to show me CLARITY.. he did.. a few days later I went to get my drugs out of a cabinet and heard an audible voice say get it all out.. I had a FEAR like never before.. I was a 16 yr addict, sold drugs, lied, manipulated, stole, cheated, was a bad mom, wife, neibor.. I was a FILTHY SINNER. God awoken me to my WAYS and gave me the ability to REPENT = STOP,THINK and TURN from your SIN.. he wasn't playing with my foolishness any longer . He set the stage to do his will.. it was reading the BIBLE for myself and having a personal RELATIONSHIP with the living CHRIST.. not RELIGION.. not an alter call.. not a SINNERS prayer.. it was dieing to self and doing the right thing.. I'm 18 yrs BORN again,BAPTIZED and holy spirit FILLED. I encourage all who read this to consider your soul.. consider your ways, take ownership of the choices you make and tell the truth.. sin will corrode you, it will keep you bound and eating your own vomit. God says we must die.. we must pick up our CROSS and follow him. You can house people, feed them.. but what about the truly needed root to get to the fruit of the real REAL ISSUE. The real issue is you love your SIN and hate God. God is not a behavior MODIFICATION man.. he is in the new heart and new start business.. he will renew your mind and give you hope and a future to do his will.. he will give you power over sin.. I'm a witness, I'm a child of God.. I am walking the straight and NARROW and I want you to be in HEAVEN with me.. I want you to know he is no respecter of person.. STOP PLAYING church, stop playing GAMES with GOD SINNER. . You want his RIGHTOUSNESS. . It will redeem you into a SAINT.. it will wash you from your FILTHY ways and set you on solid ground to do his will.. dont die in your sins.. participant in your SALVATION . Let him get the glory for your story and not the DEVIL whom came to STEAL, KILL and DESTROY. We get to CHOOSE.. CHOOSE WISELY NEIGHBORS. Seek ye the kingdom of GOD and all will be added unto you.
But what if it was actually the devil’s voice guiding u and you’ve got your wires crossed anyway I’m glad you turned your life around but god doesn’t exist and if he does then shame on him for all the suffering in the world and how the world is run by all the pedos in power that keep us the people in slaved and in poverty
I used to work for C&S in hawaii. Disnt know they was in new hampshire.
Wait....they won't rent to someone with kids or 2 adults? They should check the fair housing laws for people with kids because that has a high likelihood of being illegal for a reason to decline renting to someone. If the adults are married, that could also be illegal for the same reason declining an individual(s) with kids because it should be covered under the part of fair housing called "familial status".
No, they won't rent to deadbeats. Anyone with a brain knows that these losers will fail to pay rent and it will be hell to kick them out.

Don't they have public housing or section 8 housing in New Hampshire?
Every state &county with in the state has public/hud/section 8.. however its the wait lists that get ya. Here in oregon wait lists are 5 yrs - 20 yrs.. i been waiting 9 yrs, im disabled with limited income. Any programs their requirements arw not for my age group. I have been homeless since 2006.
Here in oregon landlords/owners by law & greed raise rent every year & now it is litterly impossible to rent more then a year at a time.
Shelters are way to picky who is allowed & who isnt
I am black listed from shelters due to cronic medical issues.
Housing is in crisis in every state and county...
After the Great Depression was over following WW2, there was the political will to build housing all over the country. You had big families and the baby boom. They wanted lots of births. So they created reasons and security for that goal. Once they had enough people being born and immigration here ( high levels)they quit building as they were doing ( 1980) and rewrote laws that make renting and homeownership difficult. They sent jobs and manufacturing overseas. None of this is an accident either ! Tech exists to track and control everything and everyone. Now that this can be done, the real tyrants have emerged. More draconian laws. Less freedom. Homelessness is a big part of this. But for the rich, who get richer since 1980- 81, everyone else is struggling. U.S.style Fascism. That's why the politicians lie when they SAY they'll end homelessness through more taxes. No. They steal the tax money- for themselves and allies. If you call them out, the cops will persecute you, on their behalf. Don't believe the hype about ending homelessness with more beaurocrats and agencies. It's not happening.
In olden times the homeless lived in the city walls which were huge and all kinds of crafts were housed there too .. like candle making .. cooking street food .. metal workers etc .. so it’s the architects challenge to resign areas to accommodate those who can’t work ..

$8?
Why so little though?
8.00 🙁 that's crazy you should try to seek legal help regarding the matter most won't charge unless you win God bless 🙏🏻
Um, no. If you “worked all your life as a nurse” you wouldn’t be on SSI, you’d perhaps be eligible for SSD.
Unless “all your life” means from age 17 to 18 and being a “nurse” is in your ad on Craigslist.
Homeless on the street can't bathe because people call the police to them even brushing my teeth in a McDonald's is a sin.snow pants in winter hot food and coffee r always welcome
Amen sister. I've been trespassed from several stores for doing nothing more than brushing my teeth or taking a shave. Trying to perform everyday hygienic tasks can get me almost arrested.
I recommend that any homeless person who can do so, join a gym membership
And many are only $9-10 monthly. Just don't tell anyone you are homeless however. It's a way to remain clean as you try to get out of homelessness. Cleaning up in store/ fast food restaurant bathrooms isn't doable anymore. Too many are homeless now, and many people make a mess, ruining it for others.
Been there. Now at a gym for showers daily. It's worth the money or ten dollars one pays a month. Or college gyms,if possible. Can't hurt !

Ben Carson did a deep dive on this and came up with the idea of putting tiny houses in peoples back yards. Im not sure if they were on wheels or stationary. Anyway with the agreement from the neighborhood allowing this to happen after seeing that the person moving there was an agreeable type. To add also the tiny house movement has to come about and resistance put aside. There are greedy investors on more than one level creating higher and higher living costs with no end in sight. Its time to stop putting a blind eye to this because it will have to be dealt with. So here is one of the best thought out solutions. If its not acted upon then it shows that people just dont give a sh----te
Homelessness may not always be a choice, but it is often the result of poor decisions, like not thinking about your own well being and saving for a rainy day. However that said the other half of it is often government over policing and regulating and interfering with the construction of homeless shelters, housing, and similar. We don't need to be locking up people for smoking a bit of weed or throwing them in prison just because they're caught without a drivers license three times. It's one thing if you can show they're a genuine danger to others maybe, but it's a completely different matter to simply lock someone up because you've taken away their license for failing to pay child support (often the result of the loss of employment, etc).
I am 63 earth time and going homeless August 31 2017. Anybody need a roommate? I wanted to travel the world teaching that there is no such thing as death, but how do I start?
start a youtube channel and teach it
How are you doing now?
We take it . why?
solution: Most homeless would appreciate a car or a van given/loaned to them. It's shelter. They probably don't need overnight heat, but if they do, people seem to like the propane Buddy Heater. Maybe the gov can provide electric hookups with oil-filled space heaters in the cold months.... kind of like a drive-in. In cities like LA or in Florida - maybe a sleeping bag or a couple of blankets, and a pillow would do. They will need a weekly gasoline allowance as well.
There will have to be a gov run network of vehicle maintenance shops to keep them running.... but they will be cheaper than the $millions that is spent on stick-and-brick public housing now. Them in vehicles is safer for them than sleeping in homeless shelters, on the street in some corner, or in 'the projects'.. Sometimes mobility can make all the difference.
Soup kitchens should remain open for those who can use them. TaDa!
There's a whole community who live in cars and vans- who like it. See channel Cheap RV Living (all one word- no spaces), Rolling Earth-Ship, etc. for details.
You clearly haven't spent many winters in the Monadnock region if you think this is a good idea. Also, you assume everyone who is homeless has a driver's license, which is not the case. And where shall we put all of these vehicles full of homeless people? Kudos for brainstorming about the issue, but your suggestion isn't really feasible.
That is the beauty of the proposal... Once the ones with drivers licenses get vehicles- they are mobile. Obviously some will not, or do not have the mental capacity to obtain drivers licenses.

There are house's that need repairs, if the mayor gets people the know these kind of word, they can help doing the work cheap but a good job done.
There are a lot of manuel craft that some volunteers can help thoses that want to learn, if a job cost like 500,00 dolores these homeless people can learn to do the job will done for 200 or will you know cheaper, but doing the job really good to last a long time.
Mr Mayer get that kind of volunteers to show them, and yes someone to supervise them, that way they can defend themselves, PLEASE. Thoses that don't is another thing get them cleaned from drugs if they don't put them little by little in the hospital to get clean, also being their they can also learn to do manuel work, I wish I was will enough to help as much people as I could.

When your a recipient of ssi, it is absolutely against the law to save more than 2 thousand or have any asset worth more than 2k. So that guy who thinks he can save while he's in the shelter is setting his self up for getting all his benefits permanently revoked through no fault of hos own doing and can even face up to ten years in jail for ftaud and be ordered to pay back a large portion of past accumulated benefits ... A lot of people don't realize how strict and unconstitutional and flat out criminal the rules of Ssi are they have a rule that you can't even accept gifts over $20 a month if you do you mist report it so they can deduct it from your monthly benefit and ifvyou don't and they find out your done! FCK Ssi thanks for keeping me poor and ohh I don't qualify for anything because its too low of an income and considered a non stable fluctuating income and everyone looks down on you and the rest think you get free money.
