hello… On your Seminole post from Jan 20, 2022 why is the brother referred to as Black? Black is a color not an ethnicity. He’s simply Seminole. Also why are your comments turned off?

Why aren't there transition facilities for folks on the waiting list for housing that are zoned as exceptions to minimal acceptable sizes ... by which I mean something akin to "capsule hotels" ... with good security, post office boxes, shared communal space (some outdoors), laundromat, fire extinguishers & escape plans, a designated room for privacy if home health care visitor Rx, showers/toilets (female, male, and gender neutral), near bus stops & at least 1 convenience store or grocery store (&, ideally a pharmacy +/- a library)? Possibly with designated places designed for the special safety needs to house the homeless people requiring mental health care, that has a % of staff trained for handling incidents that may arise, and more expert weekday visiting providers to oversee &/or manage residents' care (& to identify persons whose behavior continued to presents a danger to others & thus warrants placement elsewhere). If modular designs (for new & gutted buildings + is adaptable to existing structures) could be approved, bulk rates for materials & labor could be bid on and many fewer people could be homeless! The idea that homes have to meet current living standards or not exist .. as though living on the streets weren't both more dangerous and a hindrance to getting and holding down a job ... has to be more flexible! The intentions were to protect people, but,the rising numbers of homeless people is evidence to the contrary! Another service worth offering homeless people includes Credit Repair services, because the escalating % of rentals controlled by property management agencies are rejecting access to lease applications for FICO scores less than 650 (or 600 for a small minority of properties, typically those further from the center of town and jobs).

It's difficult to get volunteers when you fire good employees, but keep the ones who make fun of addicts asking for help, kicking out people trying their best, and giving opportunity only to those who want to sit in the homes given to them for free so they can continue doing drugs. The fights, the filth, the staff ignoring people being assaulted, doing and selling drugs directly under the windows of the sleeping unit in plain sight.... Yeah, y'all fighting that homelessness HARD. 🤣
