homelessness?
Q. i am being evicted out of my house through no fault of my family, its cos my hubby aint in the army no more, i have filled in homeless forms and they have said to go to our neighbourhood office on eviction day and we will be placed in temporary accomodation, what is this, considering i have 2 dogs a cat and a child? and our stuff is going into storage paid by the council, how long will it take til we get a perm address and have my stuff back? my hubby is working but he is only working part time due to medical problems... hence why he isnt in the army

A. You ought to be given emergency accomodation. Why did your husband not make enquiries with Army before he left. I know there would have been help to find you accommodation and if it is not too late why not go and see someone from the NAAFI who maybe able to come up with an answer. Good luck and all the best.

A. Although we do have some people who are homeless, homelessness is not a big problem in Canada. Probably something like less than 2% of the country's population are homeless. You can take pictures of seashores and cities if you don't want to go to the mountains.

What could I put in a letter to a homelessness housing organization to be rid of my mental health worker?
Q. I have been visiting with a community mental health worker for over two years now, every week. I lived with my parents in the suburbs until she helped me to get into a homelessness initiative unit. I have been living here for half of a year in this apartment. Before I moved in, she acted kind, but now that I am here, she has become passive-aggressive I think and she keeps hooking me with nasty comments and they are hard to pin on her. She is derisive toward my family, toward my sexuality, etc. What could I write in a letter to the housing organization to get her off my back? How do I escape her?

A. In general, there are steps you should take in sorting out a conflict with a service worker: 1 - Discuss it directly with the worker ONLY if you feel comfortable doing so. Do not feel you have an obligation to resolve a conflict with worker who works directly with you. 2- Discuss the conflict with the worker's supervisor. Let them know you are only interested in filing a formal complaint if the supervisor cannot help resolve the problem informally. 3- If you cannot resolve the conflict with the worker or their supervisor, discuss it with the organization's supervisor or director.

A. You can't. There are people who are homeless by choice and you will never be able to convince them to change. They are happy to live below the government's radar and interference. As for the "problem of homelessness" involving those who want a home, reduce the government's and union's interference in how businesses are run. Reduce taxes and the wasteful government spending. Let companies make more jobs available to the "homeless". Eliminate the socialist programs that support so many of these people so they are forced to go to work.

How do you help with homelessness?
Q. I live in a large city where the homeless population is as large as the small town I moved here from. It breaks my heart to see them on the street. I've made care packages with food, snacks and cigarettes (yeah I know, but I understand that addiction) but I know that's not enough. Where do you start to help these people who don't know how to help themselves? I'm looking forward to all feedback and opinions.
Asked by angielynn219 - Fri Sep 7 10:22:25 2007 - - 20 Answers - 7 Comments
A. What a thought provoking question, and how kind are you to want to help?! You're on the right track. You recognize that the homeless ARE people who need help, and that while care packages help, they're a band-aid. You can organize drives to collect things like socks, toiletries (travel size) and blankets for them. Again, a band-aid, but will provide relief. You can volunteer at your local mission or daytime shelter - spend time talking to some of the people. Learn their stories. Treat them like people.

Q. I live in a large city where the homeless population is as large as the small town I moved here from. It breaks my heart to see them on the street. I've made care packages with food, snacks and cigarettes (yeah I know, but I understand that addiction) but I know that's not enough. Where do you start to help these people who don't know how to help themselves? I'm looking forward to all feedback and opinions.
