Where to go for help

Homelessness is one of our nation's most serious social problems. While it is often the result of interwoven systemic and personal problems,the primary cause of homelessness among families is the growing gap between housing costs and income.The emergency shelter system is able to accommodate only a small fraction ofthe growing number of homeless families in need.

Families are forced to live in their cars, in garages, in other places unfit for human habitation or to move from place to place with their children, staying intermittently with friends and families. Homelessness can lead to depression, mental illness and child neglect.
