Personal Statement: I Would March For Homelessness

Imagine living a life with no water, no food, no shelter, and wearing the same old clothes over and over again for the rest of your life. Suffering those hot summer days’ heat, hurricanes, storms, and just awful weather throughout the year. Seeing people walk by past by you, not noticing you are there but they do. Begging for food when you are hungry but people do not give anything, the only thing you get is judgments. All these things homelessness go through will be something that society will never understand because they are not the ones going through tough life situations. Homelessness circumstances will ever change in our society today if you do not do something about it to support them. About 1.56 million people, or about 0.5% of

What can be proposed by the city to the public audience to help the homeless in need? In Anaheim, there is a problem with the growing amount of homeless people on the streets of our city; their presence has been increasing within parks, streets, in front of businesses, etc. The reason for why we chose this topic is because our group wants to be able to help these individuals get their life back on track, rather them having these unemployed people living out on the filthy streets. I constantly see individuals begging for money at the exits of freeways and cross lights, instead of seeing them work for their money. To do this, we need to be able to convince our community to propose programs to city hall that will help homeless

Homelessness is a growing epidemic across the country. This terrible misfortune has led to many unsuspecting people leading impoverished lifestyles, and facing the horrific and heart-wrenching tragedy of abandonment.

Also, I will demonstrate the causes and effects of the homeless resorting to violence, by using comparison and contrast to examine the views and standpoints on helping the forgotten, so that we might end this calamity once and for all.

The March on Washington was a march for jobs and freedom. It was estimated that quarter of a million people attended the march.

We live in a world where it is survival of the fittest. It is hard to succeed, one wrong decision can easily lead someone into a financial struggle. This can lead to homelessness. Homelessness is not a lifestyle that one would choose by choice. In 2003, there has been "... as many as 1.3 million Canadians that have experienced homelessness...at some point during the last 5 years." Affordable housing costs less on an annual basis compared to putting the homeless in prison. Canada was the last to have an action plan towards ending homelessness and as we are understanding; the prisons are being over-populated.

Although most American citizens do not typically notice government programs in their daily lives, implemented policies have major effects on American citizens. It is estimated that around 1.35 million children suffer from homelessness due to their families living on the streets (Crook). With this massive housing conundrum, the United States government should increase funding for the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act. Increased funding would decrease homelessness by lowering the crime rate, educating students, and improving American living conditions.

Homelessness is a growing problem in today’s society. Because of the economic crises, many people are losing his or her jobs because company’s had to cut back on expenses, as well as companies that have closed down completely. Furthermore because of the economic crises many mental institutions are forced to close the doors because of lack of funds. People who once had a safe healthy place to call home are being forced into homelessness and are lacking the health care needed to ensure a happy healthy life.

Homelessness is an issue, which plagues millions of Americans on a daily-basis. The current mainstream method of dealing with this issue has proven to be inefficient and extremely expensive, a burden which is passed onto society, despite the plethora of alternative methods which have a proven success rate and also have a much larger cost when compared to that associated with general homelessness in the country.
