There is never going to be a real and long lasting solution to homelessness because if they solve it, they've destroyed their own jobs. Nobody is going to fix a problem that pays their bills, as long as the problem exists, they have a job.. So many people that are not able to figure it out on their own need assistance. But if they get assistance, and the problem is solved, poof, there go thousands of jobs.
I tried to get a apartment once and they gave me the runaround so bad. I always have a job. It’s definitely a scam. Sounds like they are doing more half stepping and false measures 😂
Convert that huge graffiti tower into a homeless shelter! Prioritize veterans, then mothers with children, and then men who are willing to be screened- and if needed- placed in treatment. This shouldnt be that difficult
One of the main issues are too many agencies profit and non profit alike.. back in 2013 i became homeless was living in a park for a year ..very difficult. I has a case worker who was not good at his job. However the only way to get into these agencies to get referred to housing " specialists " u has to be referred by a case worker you were not allowed to walk in off the streets. Meanwhile i found some emergency shelter for 30 days. Then if i foll9wed the rules then they offered transitional shelter however these transitional shelters required u hand over your checks to them no matter the amout of money i was collecting GR 230$ plus food stamps unfortunately i was renting a storage space with all my worldly belongings which i was not willing to part with. Needless to say i had to leave transition shelter. I signed up for permanent housing which took me five years to get what an ordeal. Basically the gov. Needs to fund alot of these alot housing units because rents are so F CKING HIGH NOW
I’m a veteran and I can’t even get a HUD-VASH voucher 😢 These are supposed to be plentiful, yet the county is only allocated so many per fiscal year, so veterans either have to live on the street or in their cars for at least 6 months before they’ll even receive one. Then, it can take 3-4 months to find a place that will accept it. 😕
Then people wonder why all these people are still homeless. They've been taking that money and the resources. I wonder how many blk homeless mothers are they helping?
No signs of intelligence on this planet. Unfortunately, we appear to have run out of rocket fuel! Looks like we're stuck with baboons that are our so called "government officials"..... 😵💫
It's terrible what's going on with the money intended for homeless housing, living without a home is not safe and every night when you close your eyes you pray for God to protect you and your family. Shelters are not the answer too many awful things happen in shelters and it's a traumatic experience no one should have to go through. Mo one wants to see homeless people no one wants to acknowledge their lives. Please take a meal with you and go sit down with a family or someone homeless and get to know them and their dreams, emotions, prayers. We're human were house trained 😆. I'm not saying look for the badest drug addicted person be careful who you sit with. Know that homeless people are not trusting and may be standoffish until they know that your not going to cause trouble for them. But just try to understand what their going through what got them where they are,a lot of us are normal people without drug addiction or mental issues, were just without means to pay rent and rent keeps going up. Not all of us are dirty and trash places most people here are loving, caring and have compassion for others. Some of us are here to help others in some way, trying to be a good example for other people to see and hopefully want to change their life. So please don't look down your nose at all of us. I don't judge you don't judge me
No one is surprised
That money is misappropriated: Come on!! Unfortunately, that has been pocketed by the officials, from city, county, and higher ups.
SHUT IT DOWN! Recall Mayor Karen Bass & Corrupt L.A. City Council.
Recall Karen Bass
I hope Trump goes after all these useless agencies and demands some accountability 😡
They know who stole the money. 😂 The police know as well 🤣
Man I was just about to comment this, you're on point 🎯
AUDIT THE NON-PROFITS
Non profiters and gaining hella profit smh
Thank you for exposing these corrupt homeless agencies
Feeding more money without accountability only perpetuates the homeless crisis.

Similar to our healthcare system, our immigration system, our prison system. There are people who benefit from these things being an issue.

LAHSA employees would trade donated items like jackets and boots/shoes for weed and drugs next 811 Wilshire a few years ago!

Broken up so it’s harder to track the missing money???
Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority works this way : 1 dollar for you 3 dollars for me!💰💸🤑

Migrate to another state. Rent is high here. Don't need homeless here on our streets.
Move!

And we keep voting for them and giving the govt. our money.
Hmm what do the pentagon and LAHSA have in common with the handling of funds?
Then people wonder why all these people are still homeless. They've been taking that money and the resources. I wonder how many blk homeless mothers are they helping?
Lol they know elon and vivek coming
Imagine all of the treadmills that money could have bought.
And voters approved ANOTHER tax rate hike!!!! I just dont get it.
Of course they don't get it. These propositions are very deceptive.. the only thing i Iook at is the cost to taxpayers
@@ccarta192 all those politicians do is push the problems onto taxpayers to pay for services, not single dime comes from themselves.
