I'm not sure about all your points, but I will back you up on one thing, the front line caregivers are underpaid. I worked for a similar local agency for 7 years in the financial department and what really frustrated and angered me is how the state (our funder) gave us an incentive to pay no more than minimum wage. Of course that makes it hard to hire enough caregivers to serve your population properly.

The problem is addiction that leads to mental health problems. It’s hard to help those who don’t want to be helped. California has a lot of desert. Make a city in the desert for the homeless, and if they want to rejoin society then they will have to get clean and learn a trade. Rather than force them to to live along us which they obviously won’t do in their state
Problems is also Bureaucrats purposely stalling. It takes 2 months for homeless to even receive housing while illegal migrants are able to get prepaid cards and shelter in weeks. You have a corrupt syatem for profit who claim non profit org.

FYI, nobody grows up WANTING to become a drug addict. I know i most certainly didnt dream of growing up to become one, or to struggle with homelessness! A life of addiction is pure hell, & i wouldnt wish it upon my worst enemy 👌 💯
@@mistypfitzer111The point being made is that nobody forced them to do drugs to begin with. They chose that themselves knowing the dangers yet proceeded with the bad decision. Their situation is a result of their actions. I'm not saying that they can't change but they must make that choice themselves.
"We failed them" as a statement does not absolve them of responsibility. It is referring to the fact that the state decided many years ago to close state mental hospitals and instead rely on an army of small local agencies. This policy change has proven to be a failure. The main reason, in my opinion, as a long-time employee in the financial department of one such agency, is that they are desperately underfunded. In fact, the state actually gives us an incentive to pay no more than minimum wage to caregivers!
In 2013, I was homeless, got into drugs went to prison, and then I got to know Jesus and he changed my life...Heaven came through for me in my finances too, getting $50,000 in 2months. I can support God's work and give back to my community. God is more than enough! Now I have a new identity and am a child of God
This might be a hot take, but I think they actually should be last line. There are limited resources and they should first be spent on the people who show the most potential for being able to improve their situation and stay off the streets. There are some genuinely upstanding and hardworking who fall on hard times and just need a break to get back on their feet.i think we should focus on them first and then the crackheads.

Looks just like the Tenderloin in San Francisco. The government is the problem and has enabled the issue. Police being defunding did not help and not allowing the police to enforce the law doesn’t help. Politicians with their lies and failed policies are the problem. All the empty commercial buildings in downtown LA that have been vacant for decades need to be torn down and rezoned for residential housing affordable housing. It’s that simple the politicians can have the city of LA purchase these properties. They don’t want to do they would rather continue to profit off of people living in poverty. That’s beyond horrible.

There is no solution to homelessness based on how we are doing things. We basically need to ask them nicely to get off the street and provide treatment. Some people either are to addicted to drugs or they are to mentally unstable to even make that choice.

They didnt even ask him if he WANTED to live off the streets, or if he WANTED to get clean...:/ he has to want to change & want to better his life, & have at least a little faith that it will happen..i know how crappy our systems are in regards to helping the homeless permanent housing.. ive struggled with homelessness all my adult life almost, & addiction as well as comorbity, & chronic illness/ physical limitations.. not anywhere near as severe as that case, but ive slipped thru the cracks too & youre so easily forgotten once u do 😢😢
Over where i am in Canada b.c housing and many other services are available but alot of the time, the addiction is so bad that they refuse treatment and would rather die high than get well, so in the sence this story is suggesting to have them institutionalized, forced off the streets against thier will and force medicated, which may be the only real option, when you are so completly sick you cannot help yourself...

Money doesn't make a difference because we still let the homeless make the *choice* to remain homeless. Homelessness has to be made illegal once and for all, with housing available for everyone. If they refuse, they need to pack up and leave town. No more of this expensive, out of control nonsense.
“Pack up and leave town” with a destination to where exactly? No matter where they go there will be a you. The consequence of creating societies is that the governing bodies are responsible for all people.. not just the ones that they prefer.
Throwing them in jail is also a big waste of money? County government should pay homeless to pick up trash and whatnot, if theyblow their whole paycheck that's their own fault. Maybe even give them discount living quarters or something like rent out some cheap apartments. There's lots of work out there, just it's alot harder getting jobs when you smell like a dumpster and look all scruffy. Hell make be even rentout a big field and put up tents, charge em like 400$ a month, put in some bathrooms and solar chargers.
@@zulutimeproductions3143let's start by sending them back to where they came from. Ohio for example in Caleb's case. If you got rid of all of these California dream chaser's, there would be few homeless and drug addicts on the street.

Rent NEEDS to be tied to the actual INCOME of people who live in a place. If rent is unaffordable for the average INCOME in a neighborhood, it needs to be illegal to charge more than what is reasonable.

Gawd! I visited California several times, Los Angeles Area and San Fransisco Bay Area. They have a lot of homeless people all over their cities and a lot of homeless encampments. Also, a lot of the homeless I encountered had mental problems. I could tell because my late uncle, my dad's oldest brother, had mental problems. There's nothing California can do really. Homelessness is universal. I'm from Chicago and I also visited Paris, France twice also and those cities have their own homeless problems also. It so happens California, Hawaii, Texas, and Florida has a lot of homeless people because it's warm over there compared to Chicago. In Chicago, the weather can be minus -10 to -19 degrees below freezing here with massive snowstorms and a lot of heavy rains. If I was homeless, I wouldn't stick around Chicago. I would migrate to southern California or southern Florida.

The problem is addiction that leads to mental health problems. It’s hard to help those who don’t want to be helped. California has a lot of desert. Make a city in the desert for the homeless, and if they want to rejoin society then they will have to get clean and learn a trade. Rather than force them to to live along us which they obviously won’t do in their state
its called slab city
Yucca Valley is a good destination for bums
Problems is also Bureaucrats purposely stalling. It takes 2 months for homeless to even receive housing while illegal migrants are able to get prepaid cards and shelter in weeks. You have a corrupt syatem for profit who claim non profit org.
They would refuse to go there because they get their drug money from crime and panhandling.
It’s the other way around. Many are predisposed to addiction passed down from genes or they may have suffered some trauma during their life.
$250 mill, thats for one program, lets not forget the billions spent per year, BTW they are trying to raise sales tax again for more money for the homeless
No that money is going straight to the politicians

Get rid of the drugs
"We failed them" as a statement does not absolve them of responsibility. It is referring to the fact that the state decided many years ago to close state mental hospitals and instead rely on an army of small local agencies. This policy change has proven to be a failure. The main reason, in my opinion, as a long-time employee in the financial department of one such agency, is that they are desperately underfunded. In fact, the state actually gives us an incentive to pay no more than minimum wage to caregivers!

Those with a job & choose to live on the street
Those to drugged up to care
Those to mentally disturbed to hold a job or keep a home
No decent paying jobs
And no affordable housing also contributes to homeless

There is no solution to homelessness based on how we are doing things. We basically need to ask them nicely to get off the street and provide treatment. Some people either are to addicted to drugs or they are to mentally unstable to even make that choice.

Over where i am in Canada b.c housing and many other services are available but alot of the time, the addiction is so bad that they refuse treatment and would rather die high than get well, so in the sence this story is suggesting to have them institutionalized, forced off the streets against thier will and force medicated, which may be the only real option, when you are so completly sick you cannot help yourself...

Apartments are expensive in California.
Money doesn't make a difference because we still let the homeless make the *choice* to remain homeless. Homelessness has to be made illegal once and for all, with housing available for everyone. If they refuse, they need to pack up and leave town. No more of this expensive, out of control nonsense.
“Pack up and leave town” with a destination to where exactly? No matter where they go there will be a you. The consequence of creating societies is that the governing bodies are responsible for all people.. not just the ones that they prefer.
Throwing them in jail is also a big waste of money? County government should pay homeless to pick up trash and whatnot, if theyblow their whole paycheck that's their own fault. Maybe even give them discount living quarters or something like rent out some cheap apartments. There's lots of work out there, just it's alot harder getting jobs when you smell like a dumpster and look all scruffy.
Hell make be even rentout a big field and put up tents, charge em like 400$ a month, put in some bathrooms and solar chargers.

Gawd! I visited California several times, Los Angeles Area and San Fransisco Bay Area. They have a lot of homeless people all over their cities and a lot of homeless encampments. Also, a lot of the homeless I encountered had mental problems. I could tell because my late uncle, my dad's oldest brother, had mental problems. There's nothing California can do really. Homelessness is universal. I'm from Chicago and I also visited Paris, France twice also and those cities have their own homeless problems also. It so happens California, Hawaii, Texas, and Florida has a lot of homeless people because it's warm over there compared to Chicago. In Chicago, the weather can be minus -10 to -19 degrees below freezing here with massive snowstorms and a lot of heavy rains. If I was homeless, I wouldn't stick around Chicago. I would migrate to southern California or southern Florida.
