Did you know that....
Over 1 million children sleep on the streets or in homeless shelters every night. Many homeless people are among the working poor, and a relatively small percentage of them receive government assistance. One out of four homeless is employed full or part-time. One quarter of the homeless are war veterans. One out of four homeless is a child. The fastest growing homeless group in the U.S. is families with children. Thirty-six percent of people with AIDS have been homeless since learning that they had HIV or AIDS. The numbers who are homeless for at least one night during the year is probably over three million. Millions are among the hidden homeless--people who are one crisis away from losing their homes. The homeless are found not only in cities, but also in small towns, rural areas and affluent suburbs. Many homeless people have completed high school; some have attended college and even graduate school. About 25% of the homeless are estimated to be mentally ill, about 40% are alcohol or substance abusers, and about 15% suffer from both disabilities. One percent may need long-term hospitalization. Research indicates that 40% of homeless people have been homeless less than six months, and that 70% of homeless people have been homeless less than two years. About 3.5 million US residents,(about 1% of the population), including 1.35 million children, have been homeless for a significant period of time. According to the Ford Foundation, about 50% of all homeless women and children were victims of physical or other abuse by their own family members. Many times, the homeless are turned away by shelters due to overcrowding. In general, the homeless are among the least threatening group in our society and are more likely to be victims of crime. Although they are more likely to commit non-violent and non-destructive crimes, they are less likely to commit crimes against person or property. The growth of homelessness has far exceeded the capacity of charitable groups. Homelessness is a societal problem that requires a partnership between private charities and the government, with active public support.

It is estimated that veterans nationwide make up more than a quarter of the homeless population. Facing emotional and physical injuries, they can find the readjustment to home extremely difficult. Some end up living on the streets.
In all of 2006, the Alliance to End Homelessness estimates that 495,400 veterans were homeless at some point during the year. Homelessness is not just a problem among middle-age and elderly veterans. Younger veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan are trickling into shelters and soup kitchens seeking services, treatment or help with finding a job. The Veterans Affairs Department has identified 1,500 homeless veterans from the current wars.

"He came down to show the way, so that man can follow and joyfully say, all glory to God, who specified days, on Earth, in Heaven, and Holy ways. So praise Him now with trembling heart, the King who specified all from the start...."
