One of the biggest misconceptions about homelessness is that people need to “just get a job.”

In reality, many people experiencing homelessness are already working and still unable to afford stable housing. Others may be older adults or individuals with disabilities living on fixed incomes that no longer cover the cost of rent and basic needs.

Housing instability is often tied to factors such as: affordability, healthcare costs, limited housing availability, and gaps between income and rising living expenses, not a lack of effort or willingness to work.

WVCEH staff had a great time this weekend at the Berkeley County Sheriff’s 5th Annual Community Day! ☀️

From fire trucks and ambulances to a helicopter landing and takeoff, there was no shortage of excitement for kids and families. Even better, the day was full of meaningful connections with community partners; conversations that ultimately help all of us serve our communities better.

We’re grateful to be part of events like this that bring resources directly to folks and create opportunities to connect people with the support they need.

Hosting a resource fair or community event? We’d love to be there! Reach out to invite WVCEH to table and share information about how we can help. 🤝

Policies that punish people for being unhoused don’t create housing.

Real solutions focus on housing, support, and address the root causes of housing instability.
