    I also want to acknowledge an organization called LIVING POSITIVE. So much of becoming “formerly homeless” involves a team effort. Yes, Care for the homeless/Care found here played a Michael Jordan part in saving my life. But Living Positive played Scottie Pippen and none of this would have turned out the way it did without them. They put me in contact with the realtor who screened me for the apartment I now live in. CFTH worked on my inside and got me right so I could take advantage of an opportunity that LP provided on the outside.

You're Stuck in a Rut, That *Near Impossible to work scenario!* There are Different levels of Homelessness! They just don't care to understand its Deeply traumatic, Dealing with Emotional stresses, Sleep Depression, etc! The Main reason they don't care is Because these are *_"Non lived"_* situations for them and they have a "narrow naive mind set! Their answer or common response always fall back on "Just get a Job"! If you don't have the "Resources Of (Housing, a Place to store your belongings👕👖🎒🥾👟 Safely, the ability to 🛁🧼, cook and Maintain/ Preserve food, and a Good place to sleep 🛌🏾 or 🛋 to Maintain and Keep the job! *That's the bottom line!* They are just to Stupid and don't care about your Horrible situation!!

Simply went there for a class to help put your resume together and look for work and yes I had been in a shelter and yes I have prior education and work history everyone else in the class was a woman of color.

    What about a shelter for the very sick and disabled in nyc? There’s only been one shelter for the disabled and that was in Manhattan. We want to shelter the mentally ill and have general population shelters, but we don’t provide any accessible shelter for the disabled. I’m not talking about a hip replacement type of disability. I’m talking about the very sick disabled people that are not being cared for. What about them? Your forcing them into nursing homes instead of providing adequate shelter and services for the disabled community. People in nyc are getting sick every day and are losing their apartments because they can’t work and eventually will be forced out onto the streets. They need your help too.
