In case you think you know what “kind of people” are living on our streets…
Years ago my nonprofit housed a senior woman who’d been forced to live on the streets of Oakland after her husband’s cancer bankrupted them. She learned after he died and her house burned down that he’d stopped paying their homeowner’s insurance to save money for his chemo. As a retired schoolteacher she required a physical address to receive her pension checks. Our NPO gave her a new apartment she could afford.
