Unhoused People
Describe the challenge you want to address:
In our community we see a myriad amount of homeless due to inflation and how pricey housing can be for families with low financial status
What is the solution to the challenge?
Voucher programs (to help them afford food); pay their rent for a few months while they are working; programs for basic resources (food, clothes, toiletries); opportunity for jobs; make programs more available for homeless (low income); putting caps on security deposits and income requirements
