Editor's Notes
- I will be reading some facts that will show how useful this organization will be to the city of boston and possibly to more cities in the future. Since 2014, homeless families in Boston has risen by 70% because housing prices have been rising by 7% annually. This results in more families in boston struggling with homelessness than indepdent people, which causes the average age of homeless people in boston to be 8 years old. Another fact is that most employers claim that homelessness is a proxy, or a hose for negatives qualities such as bad behavior or bad habits, which makes it even harder for homeless people to start working again. The homelessness rate in Boston has also gone up 65% since a decade ago, and more than half of these people do not have a job.
