Homeless people who have lost their jobs because they have been misdiagnosed or undiagnosed are likely to have families. At first I was thinking people like. Single people. And then it hit me that there are probably lots of families who have fallen through the floor b.c. of illness. They need Forging Hope Houses. There will be single people. Married people. Young people. Old people. Families. The mission remains the same. Assisting people in their journey from illness to wellness. A home is just another tool to get there.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463655558550518858.post-22850329966540839742010-12-23T15:46:17.209-07:002010-12-23T15:46:17.209-07:00Glad you and the Girl scouts were able to experien...Glad you and the Girl scouts were able to experience that.

Thank you for helping these families. You are right--they are people--real people. They usually are either down on their luck or victims of generational poverty. It's hard to crawl out of a hole like that when there are no jobs or a parent is simply unemployable (for a variety of reasons). <br /><br />I won't go further, except to say that poverty is more of a problem in this country than most people realize until they really look for it or allow themselves to see it.<br /><br /> I wish for all children three meals a day, a roof over their heads, clean clothes on their backs, a warm bed--and for those who don't have those basic necessities--people like you who care enough to help. You make more of a difference than you realize.E.
