The homeless in our little community is not at a very high rate. We have a lot of Plant closings, but most of the people have gone out and found other jobs.
Nearly all the communities have Homeless shelters, and that helps take care of the overflow.
We at our church along with several churches have a food program, that distributes food and clothing for the needy, not only for the homeless, but for every one that apply it.
We had one homeless man who came in for a coat and blanket, but refused food, for he didn’t have any place to put it. However, we have to remember not all homeless people are homeless because they have fallen on hard times, but choose to be. They want to feel their freedom to do as they choose.

Thank you - for being you. Our state isn't doing half as much and it's much smaller.
