Homesless in the U.S

¨Homeless in the U.S¨ from the national coalition for the homeless is explaining ways that many people may experience homelessness like having mental illness or being addicted towards drugs. This article talks about the differences between becoming homelessness and being introduced to homelessness. ¨lack of employment opportunities with unemployment ratio remaining high, jobs are hard to find in the current economy¨ this is a large thing towards many people because there is no way to avoid poverty even if you got a job which could also make people slowly become homeless.

Those who don't have a home are having involvement with criminal justice, which states in the article ¨connecting youth to traditional approaches to increasing stability and income such as educational and employment supports.
