    Finally, a presentation most relevant to me! I'm probably your only homeless fan, but I've been watching since before I left my abuser to become homeless.

      @@DocSnipes I think you have done more than you realize. These educational videos are meant for clinicians to I get a lot out of them and it helps me educate myself about what my limitations are and how to advocate for myself to the services around here. In fact this past week I finally got approved for temporary housing.

      stay strong, i see it’s been a year since your comment, i hope you’re staying healthy though covid and are happier the you were when with your abuser. and please keep making coments like this to help raise awareness about that fact that homeless people are not simply addicts that spent their money on drugs like most of our society today believes. together we can teach people

    This is everything I needed as a layperson advocate. Others in my community and myself have come together to assist our neighbors living outside. I have learned a lot about resources and services and the how difficult it can be connecting those in need with the appropriate resource. Thank you so much for taking the time to create this presentation.

    Thank you so much for this! As someone who is interning as a Case Manager (for my MSW), and working at a housing agency, this was so informative and helpful. I've come across many situations where I was unsure how to think or react to a way my client is behaving, whether it be the choices they make or the things they prioritize over "progress". For example, clients rescheduling appointments, or client frustration and hesitation over pursuing health care or mental health care (especially regarding long wait times on the phone). I have taken notes on this PowerPoint, specifically where you discuss the RESTORE method and SMART goals, and will keep these in mind as I continue through my career. While I have a pretty good rapport with most of my clients, I want to make sure I am not behaving in a way that could potentially damage that. ♥

      Most social workers don't know what they are doing. Nothing personal cause I don't know you and there's always hope... but what I said has been my experience... whenever I needed anything or crime victim services etc. More violence, subtle attitudes of apathy, often not so subtle...people in emergencies are so easy to diss.....and they already looked up the Riders Digest Version and maybe the Google Scholars version too of how will they solve their problem and they are more afraid now and they went to the "alternative" list of rules too...and they need enough money, and one or two people who will give a damm...and most people on the verge of homelessness have been betrayed repeatedly in both and more life departments...and now we quack more stats...really good job but only a symptom of an unending growing crisis...of capitalism. How many years before there are no homes (or civil rights or justice either) 4 any but the very rich. But make sure to blame the victim good and clear...better habits might help
      lol

      @@averayugen8462 Oh, I completely agree and struggle with "not knowing what I'm doing" myself, lol (I graduate this August with my MSW and still feel relatively underprepared). I also totally agree with you that homeless is a symptom of capitalism, and people who are homeless are victims of that and so many other systemic issues. I think in my original post what I was referring to when I said "reacting to a way clients are behaving" is understanding that what we view as "progress" is not a priority for them because they are in the middle of the shit, trying to survive. They don't have the bandwidth, tools, financial support, support systems, etc. to really begin focusing on the things they can change. So, I shouldn't be viewing it negatively, as a problem with them or frustrated by inconsistency/lack of motivation, but try to get the full picture of what barriers are there and what can be done to help alleviate some of that.
      Something that I have noticed, which is a shame and in line with what you have said, is the way these people tend to be treated. Social workers are in positions to purposefully offer assistance, and should understand diversity, trauma, world views, etc. and not let that completely cloud their ability to help. Like....they should be actively working on their biases. But even in my placements, I have seen a lot of bias and contempt towards clients/patients, for whatever reason, and it's pretty messed up. I worked at an inpatient psych facility a few years ago, and ugh....the way the patients were treated by staff was disgusting. Most of the time I was there they did not even have soap to shower with, toothbrushes, toothpaste, non-slip socks. The staff were rude and crude. It felt like they were in prison, and I am sure they felt that way, too.

    My wife's homeless sister is in my yard right now . No one can help her . We all have tried but , no nursing home or homeless shelter will keep her because she is schizophrenic really bad talking to herself and running the streets .We tried to put her in a group home but she won't live there because she said it's for crazy people . So, Today she lives on the street winter and summer. We feed and water her when she comes around .If we took her in and let her live with us , she would burn our house down with cigarettes not being put out. Nothing we can do except feed her or give clothing when we can afford it.☝😔

      There are about 36,000 Post-Secondary Teachers of Psychology...per the department of Labor. There are about about 60,000 clinical counselors in practice. If you include substance abuse counselors, the count goes to 320,000. (There are only a handful of us producing quality CZcams content though....)

    Homless is a result not a cause to be treated permenantly .
    Some major way to treat This issue :-
    1- Forbidding Alcohol and Drugs 100%.
    2- control media that market drug dealers and heros .
    3- Forbidding of out marriage relationship . ( check Bible )
    4- To keep tjings short and clear follow Quran , Bible and Torah teaching .
