Homelessness in America

Homelessness in America

 

Homelessness in America is a growing issue,With the cost of living going up ,these days, and the employment opportunities going down, more and more people are finding themselves homeless. The lack of affordable housing and the decline in the availability of public assistance also contributes to the rise of homelessness. It seems like these days even if your working forty hours a week your barely able to pay house hold bills ,while earning minimum wage. There are people working, who still do not have a permanent roof over their head. I feel to try to help homelessness minimum wage in the nation needs to be raises to at least eleven dollars an hour. I also feel that ,as communities, we should get together and help each other , by fundraising and donations, to possibly build more fixed income housing for those working with families who need a stable home.Also we need to try to provide more homeless shelters with job assisting programs.Sometimes people just need a helping hand and a second chance to turn there life around.
