💔 Heartbreaking and INSPIRING Story of Disabled Homeless Mom

Cori is a homeless single mom living in a Los Angeles 90-day emergency shelter with her daughter. Cori's 90 days in up on 3/28 is just two days from now. Cori is disabled and cannot work. She received a little over $700 in disability income, but that is not enough to pay for rent and basic needs.
The 90-day rule is a stupid rule driven by government contracts. Who gets their life together in 90 days? While it's frowned upon, family shelters can extend Cori's stay, which is the best-case scenario. It's shocking that the service provider has yet to find Cori housing or would even consider kicking this young mom outside, but I have seen it happen. No one should be homeless, especially young children.
Cori reached out to me and asked if I would interview her. Cori sent a link to this video • Unhoused Artists of Lo... . Watching her story moved me, but meeting Cori and her daughter Cordelia was far beyond what I expected.
Cori was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at age 3. She has lived a tough life. At one point in this interview, I had to change the topic, or I would have cried; her story is so heartbreaking.
Cori's an inspiration. She's been in the homeless shelter system in multiple states, trying to find support. It's mind-blowing that a young mother has to move from state to state to hopefully get the help she needs only to find a broken, homeless services system.
Cori is a talented artist and businesswoman, even against all the challenges that a homeless single mom faces daily. She started drawing on cardboard selling her art to tourists. Cory now steps up a little popup shop on the sidewalk to sell her art and some jewelry that was given to her.
Homelessness is a growing, national crisis. It should be addressed in Washington. Bottom line: Housing is the solution. We need more resources to get folks into housing. Demand action. With your help, we can end homelessness. Click here invisiblepeopl... to tweet, email, call, or Facebook your federal and state legislators to tell them ending homelessness and creating more affordable housing is a priority to you.

About Invisible People
There is a direct correlation between what the general public perceives about homelessness and how it affects policy change. Most people blame homelessness on the person experiencing it instead of the increasing shortage of affordable housing, lack of employment, childhood trauma, lack of a living wage, or the countless reasons that put a person at risk. This lack of understanding creates a dangerous cycle of misperception that leads to the inability to effectively address the root causes of homelessness.
We imagine a world where everyone has a place to call home. Each day, we work to fight homelessness by giving it a face while educating individuals about the systemic issues that contribute to its existence. Through storytelling, education, news, and activism, we are changing the narrative on homelessness.
This isn’t just talk. Each year, our groundbreaking educational content reaches more than a billion people across the globe. Our real and unfiltered stories of homelessness shatter stereotypes, demand attention and deliver a call-to-action that is being answered by governments, major brands, nonprofit organizations, and everyday citizens just like you.
However, there is more work to be done on the road ahead. Homelessness is undoubtedly one of our biggest societal issues today and will only continue to grow if we don’t take action now.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the public about homelessness through innovative storytelling, news, and advocacy. Since our launch in 2008, Invisible People has become a pioneer and trusted resource for inspiring action and raising awareness in support of advocacy, policy change and thoughtful dialogue around poverty in North America and the United Kingdom.

That means that any family with kids who loses their home would end up going to jail and have their kids put in Foster care!!! Way to go !!! IT'S TIME that we, the people stood up to the politicians who make the rules!!! Sorry but enough is enough. HOW COME THE UNITED STATES has MONEY for wars but totally ignores the homeless, the hungry; our veterans who served this country but are homeless and are in wheelchairs because they lost their legs fighting wars the politicians created!!! People they are taking mo ey and lining their own pockets. They use the Medicare system to victimize old people by telling them they have diseases when they don,'t. WE NEED TO STAND UP AS A PEOPLE and make these politicians accountable to us for why they do nothing about the working , disabled, people on social security. Go on U Tube and type in "HOMELESS in San Francisco" See how bad it is there. People we are turning into a 3rd world country. Even the United Nations asked Washington DC why America was turning into one big slum. This is happening in other countries like Italy, Sweden and Germany ,etc. Of all people the Muslim immigrants in Sweden have taken pity on the homeless in Stockholm, Sweden and now serve meals to the homeless there. Amsterdam and Venice are 2 other cities people x annot afford a place to live. PLEASE petition the United Nations to send Every country funds and aid.

Camping includes Sleeping outside of a motor vehicle or making preparations to sleep outside of a motor vehicle, including laying down a sleeping bag, blanket, or other material used for bedding. The bill, SB 1610, would also create a Class C misdemeanor to panhandle, or ask for money, with a $50 fine and 20 to 40 hours of community service work, picking up trash on the highways and interstates.

This woman needs supervision, and guidance daily. Without the supervision to ensure daily stability she could be sabotaging herself. Meaning she presents well in this moment, but off camera in her everyday life she may not be functioning this "together". She may have had support, but when you present well, without the true cognitive abilities to carry out executive functions you truly become your own barrier every step of the way. Some people are disabled, but not disabled enough for continuous support... But they also aren't functioning well enough to sustain stability. It's an awful position to be in.

I still say she can go for an Associates Degree in Graphic Art. I applied to the school and was accepted the first day. It was easy to qualify if you showed any aptitude for art at all. The school shoes you how to combine your art skills with the computer. The first week in school I received over $3500 in overage money from my grants and loans and used that to pay rent and buy art supplies. I got a check like that every three months That's what she needs to do

Don’t know if you will see this but please if you do see this message and this woman again tell her I love her. Tell her god loves her and everything will work out. I don’t know how she feels about cold weather and Milwaukee is kinda crazy right now but the women shelters here are amazing. They actually get you housing after a couple weeks. I pray that god has his hands over this beautiful day woman and child because they deserve so much more.

I was waiting for someone to mention this. What the homeless sector does is they give a person a list of referrals. Many of them are dead ends. It’s madness! She makes a little over $700, which is not enough for s place to stay much less a place plus basic needs like food. The homeless SHOULD help her, or any homeless person, but they don’t have the staff. My point is that I didn’t clarify the details of that statement. I know this morning, she has an intake meeting. While I believe she misspoke, even if she didn’t, without help, she would not be able to find the support she needs
