How Homeless Shelters Work

I have decided to create a social program that identifies the social problem of Homelessness. The new human services, social program will target helping homeless individuals and families to get off the streets. In order to have a successful program I have to come up with an outline and cover all of the basics. This program will have many different resources available to homeless or about to be homeless individuals and families. There are so many homeless people out there and her in the state of Florida there are not many places for homeless people to turn to for comfort and safety. So I am truly excited to be creating this new program that will help many people to go forward and live wonderful and successful lives, no matter what they have been through. Throughout this paper I will be discussing some of the things that are needed in order to start an organization. This paper will serve as an outline or an information source on how to create a social program as well as the social program that I am creating.

Solutions I propose would include building housing for the homeless, as well as providing them with the necessary support, such as financial advisors and councilors, as well as the education and training to obtain a job. Building houses may sound expensive and unobtainable

A Homeless Task Force was created by the Mayor of Sidney, Ohio. He saw that there were homeless citizens who were suffering in the cold. He created a Task Force in order to start programming and community services for these individuals.

The South Norfolk District Council Cabinet Meeting was held on 7 December 2015.

Kathy and Raymond have visits one day per week for two hours per day. Worker supervises these visits once per month. The first visit this worker will be supervising is on November 23, 2016. These visits occur at the Godfrey, Illinois McDonalds play place, but were taking place outside in the community prior to this when the weather is nicer. During the last supervised visit the case assistant observed Raymond reading the newspaper. The tried children interact with the case assistant; the case assistant redirects the children to interact with Kathy and Raymond. Johnathan spent most of the visit in the play place and Zoey spent most of the visit on the tablet. Raymond left the visit and returned 20 minutes later telling Kathy “they (the children)

It is with great enthusiasm and pleasure that I recommend Peyton Silverman. Peyton is one of South Windsor’s talented seniors who have left a positive impression on me as well as many others in our school and community. Well known for her skills on the softball field, Peyton does not lose sight of the importance of an education, and works just as hard on her academic skills as she does with athletics. A level of maturity well above his age, Peyton has a promising future ahead. Peyton is friendly, well-mannered and intelligent. Peyton has continued to develop in all areas of her life throughout her high school career, devoting time and attention to the school community.

Of that number, roughly 360,000 were individuals with 15% being chronically homeless and about 8% consisting of veterans. The National Coalition for the Homeless (NCH) is a national network of activists, advocates, faith and community based service providers, and others committed to a single mission to prevent and end

The National Coalition for the Homeless is a local organization for people who are experiencing homelessness.

There are programs that can help these individual and families. People can get help though their local Human Services Department.

There should be more homeless shelters in America to get people off the streets forever to help people who need it to make America a better place.

The solution to homelessness is permanent housing. (National Alliance to end homelessness 2015) “permanent housing can serve as a foundation for rehabilitation, therapy, and improved health. Rehabilitation restores the individual’s life by giving them shelter and a place to safely rest. Through housing a huge burden is taken off a homeless person’s shoulders, they no longer have to worry about finding a place to stay every night, they can shelter when it rains, warmth of a bed during cold nights and also the sanitary of using private bathrooms. The therapy of housing gives a no longer homeless individual the confidence that he can get back into society’s workforce and start again. These many benefits to the individual also have a significant improvement on the person’s health. (Ozio 2001) homeless individuals cost Governments huge expenses in many public services such as homeless shelters and emergency room. These costs are up to $40,500 per year in public costs. Housing

A Quantitative approach using longitudinal data processing was used to expedite service management and results of accountability for Philadelphia County’s ten-year plan to end homelessness. This process collects sample observations from large populations over a period of time. This electronic process organizes case planning and measures indicator initiative. This allows each community to calculate and evaluate the effectiveness of each program and system-level performance that is rendered to the homeless. Another method used was the HMIS (Homeless Management Information Center), this method which is utilized by HUD gives a full understanding and nature of homelessness in the community. This method helps in creating a resource plan as well as operational program models. This method is often used by social service agencies in Philadelphia and also gives the estimates for homeless in the United States.

I went into the High Heel Drag Race having no idea what to expect. Although I was somewhat familiar with drag, I’d never been to a show before, and what I saw was an incredibly lively and enthusiastic celebration of sexuality and sensuality. I felt like I was part of something unique and closed-off, that and that anything was allowed in spirit of the performance. My observations that evening have led me to view the whole experience through the lens of Victor Turner’s anthropological perspective on ritual and drama. His perspective is revealing in the discussion of this particular event because it displays how symbols and rituals are intertwined and how these events even come into

With the onslaught of states slowly legalizing the commercialization and use of marijuana after the passing of sanctioning initiatives led by Colorado and Washington in 2012, societal attitudes have begun to support this movement in the decriminalization of marijuana for personal use. Based on the 2014 midterms, momentum for this change has been shown in different parts of the U.S., with states such as Oregon, Alaska, and Washington D.C. joining this cause. It is safe to assume that several other states will soon follow suit, with ballot initiatives set for 2016 in states such as: Massachusetts, California, Missouri, Hawaii, Maine, Nevada, and Arizona (Becker, 2014). However, the long standing debate still stands, is this change for the better? In a world with less restrictions on illegal drugs such as marijuana, would the pros outweigh the cons? Although the answer may not be clear cut, considering the arguments made by both the supporting side and the opposing side of marijuana legalization for public consumption will help us create an opinion on what values should be taken priority on when it comes to the consequences related to advocating this movement.

Homelessness is a person or a family that don’t have a place to use as a house or shelter. US government provides emergency/winter shelters for homeless people living in the United States. Winter shelters are really useful for homeless people, but there is one problem about this service. States have the control of opening and closing these shelters. Before the beginning of winter, every state chooses a temperature to open winter shelters, and they open shelters when the weather is lower than the chosen temperature. For example New York City decided to open its winter shelters when the weather is colder than 32 F previous winter. Every state has a different temperature to open its shelters. Lethal hypothermia can be caused when the
