Homelessness prevention programs understand cashflow, not character, to be primary drivers of today’s homelessness crisis. A January 25 report from Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies estimated that over 650,000 Americans experienced homelessness in 2023—up almost 50% from 2015. Costs of renting and home ownership have skyrocketed while wages largely stagnate. The Harvard report found that half of U.S. households are “cost-burdened” (meaning that 30-50% of monthly income goes to housing), and 12 million people are “severely cost-burdened.” These Americans stand one accident, health setback, or employment disruption away from eviction.

So glad to be a part of a group that is working on eliminating this issue in Jefferson County!

Do you sew?? We have 11 sets of curtains that need to be made for our shelters. If you sew and want to contribute to our project, please contact Debbi Steele. We will need 3 curtains for each home. Anita Edwards has put fabric and instructions together. All we need is them to be assembled. Help finish off these wonderful shelters. You can see that the residents are excited and appreciative of our work!
