Statement of Need
Homelessness is a prevalent and traumatic social phenomenon in the United States, with estimates showing that homelessness rates increased by 2.2% from 2019 to 2020. More than 50 percent are mentally ill. Huge numbers suffer from alcohol or drug problems contributing to becoming homeless or caused as a consequence of being homeless. For the homeless, life can be short and ugly. In general, people without a roof over their heads die 40 years earlier. Severe medical problems are rampant in this population. Chronic health problems go untreated or under-treated. More prevalent issues like hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease lead to secondary complications, including strokes, heart failure, other neurological problems, and visual disturbances.There is a pressing need to provide for the homeless in our society.
