This is extremely helpful. I am sorting out my thoughts and creating an action plan for building a safe haven for homeless youth/foster children.

I am a foot soldier! I have been homeless over two years now, I have been sober for 20 Plus years now!
I am looking at this problem head on, and taking homeless head on, the root causes from addiction which in the homeless community is not the key problems of homeless. Homeless have unhealthy brain do to unhealthy diet, then unhealthy hygienes. I understand if I can gain the homeless respect and trust by giving them nutritious meals to help heal their brains, washers and dryers so they can wash their clothes, and showers to gain back their respect for their own selves, then it shall be downhill to help them kick their addictions. Meanwhile or shelter will be good quality canvas 10x10 tents four season of course. Now I've been talking to the homeless about my plan, some would say if you get this started I will follow you some are not sure, and some well I don't know where they stand because they don't know where they're stand because nobody has offered an actual hand up. That's what I can provide. So me and a friend have been working on the paperwork and everything and we decided that we or the organization or foundation I'm not going to take any kind of pay for all monies will remain in the foundation so that we can move this foundation in different areas when this one is started and going well. Me I will continue to be a foot soldier amongst the homeless. That's the purpose that God is giving me to do this journey.

So glad to find your channel, we are exploring the options to start a non profit for low cost, long term, secure housing for high functioning spectrum adults, watching through all you videos currently, and all are so very helpful and insightful and this video is applicable in many ways. I have registered for your checklist, thanks for all you've done in this area.

Thank you so much for this video. I’m 17 (highschool graduate) and it’s been on my heart for years to help the homeless and make it my full time focus. I myself commit acts of charity but I know that it needs to be on an official scale. This definitely helped me and solidified my plan!❤

[bbldrizzaay]

Like you said, homelessness is a complex problem with many facets. Your video is comprehensive and I appreciate you going into so much detail for us.

I just had to come back and say thank you again. I downloaded the check list and ordered the nonprofit startup. I'm finishing up my masters this year and have been in corporate 34 years and finally ready to boss up and start a transitional living home for women who have children. I'm passionate and know the road won't be easy BUT manageable and I'm excited about the lives that will be touched. Virtual hugs and blessings!!!!

[greenegreene]

We have Wes watkins which is a reservoir here in Mcloud and people in the area can camp very low cost cheaper far cheeper that a hotel and near us in Choctaw is a KOA they also provide showers and it's just a little over $100 per week to pitch a tent there
