Homelessness is a crisis in the United States. Twenty-three percent of the homeless are chronically homeless meaning
they have had several episodes of homelessness, living on the streets or in shelters (NAEH). Many of the homeless have chronic
disabilities such as mental illness and substance abuse that make them costly and difficult to place in adequate housing and
the resources to keep them housed are limited.
