A church-turned-shelter for homeless youth in Queens, New York is a far cry from sleeping on the streets after a $200,000 renovation and a partnership with the Ali Forney Center for LGBT youth.

While walking this morning in Portland, Oregon I met Nathan. Too me the weather In Pacific Northwest is nasty and I don’t know how people survive on the streets. Nathan told me he has a sleeping back, a few jackets and uses storefront awnings when he can to stay dry.
Nathan has been homeless off and on since we was 10 y...ears old.
Many street people do not want to use shelters. Lines to eat or use showers are long. Often they are not safe.
Nathan survives by begging for money at an intersection.
In weather like today he hopes to get enough money for a nights stay in a hotel. Today Nathan was lucky.

Shannon relflects on what it means to have one of the most basic things most of us take for granted: a home. Here is a quote from the article: "Yes, this crisis is bad. But the greater tragedy will be if we learn
nothing from this crisis. If we don't re-evaluate the importance of
Home, the accessibility of Home to all wh...o need it. If we don't
re-prioritize housing in this, the wealthiest, most powerful nation in
the world, that will be the real tragedy."

40 years. That's how long Butch has been homeless.
It began in 1969. Butch was just a teenager living in Cleveland, Ohio. His family fell apart, and he became homeless. Today, he is confined to a wheelchair. He begs for money to eat everyday. He says he's doing the best he can, given the circumstances.
Still - I can't ge...t this number out of my head. 40 years homeless.
Shame on us. We can do better.
