even though I was homeless, homeless service agencies would not hire me because I didn’t have enough experience with homelessness #honest

In this short interview Barbara Poppe talks about President Obama’s “Opening Doors: The Federal Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness”.
The plan has 4 key goals:
- End chronic homelessness by 2015
- Prevent and end homelessness among veterans by 2015
- End family, youth and child homelessness by 2020
- End all forms of homelessness
youth homelessness:
at the federal leve 15-24 nothing in place – they are in need of something involved with ed

LAPD orders officers to show ‘compassion and empathy’ to homeless people ow.ly/9Kzn301w5xL
The policy was a “good start,” but didn’t go far enough, said Carol Sobel, a civil rights attorney who has successfully sued the city over how it treats the homeless. The key, she said, will be for the LAPD to monitor officers to ensure they’re abiding by the new guidelines.
“We’ll believe it when we see it,” Sobel said. “You can hand out all the policies you want – that doesn’t make a difference unless you put enforcement behind it.”

I was going to be all nice and in my talk then @Abbeycatluvsme got me thinking about WWPD (what would @Pam_Palmater do) and now I am torn. For reference, this is Pam’s talk at @CAEHomelessness and is the most honest talk I have ever heard in this sector https://t.co/FRp35CdlwP(http://twitter.com/hardlynormal/status/991297338810490881?s=17)

I do not know of even one situation where a homeless person gets the support they need quickly. Not one. It doesn’t happen. The norm is to connect to services multiple times over several years and not get help. That’s a very real problem! We need less process, not more!!

@monk51295 13/ Oh, yesterday every homeless person we talked to has a smartphone. All of them are on Facebook. One person said he has an account but hates FB and doesn’t use it. Engaging people via their phone will save lives and money but the sector still does nothing to use tech like this

tech as it could be..
from same thread:
2/ officially chronically homeless. The sector has moved to focus on just chronically homeless people. I once supported that but I no longer think it’s the smart move for a few reasons. 1) We have to do something to help people first entering homelessness that do not fit…

Last year I was part of the @With1V delegation that traveled to Montreal to exchange ideas and network on how the arts can not just help homeless people find a purpose but how arts can affect policy change. Here’s my vlog about the experience https://t.co/WGpdva0b96 (http://twitter.com/hardlynormal/status/1056532945689829376?s=17)
