Walking Dead Homeless Skid Row Los Angeles California Downtown Encampments, lets walk thru the worst of the homeless encampments on skid row. Skid Row in Los Angeles is a stark reminder of the complex social and economic issues that cities face. It represents one of the largest stable populations of homeless individuals in the United States, a situation that has persisted since the 1930s. The area has been the focus of numerous initiatives and programs aimed at providing assistance and improving conditions for those affected. Organizations like the Los Angeles Mission and the Weingart Center have been instrumental in offering hope and opportunity through various services, including shelter, healthcare, and job training. Recent efforts have seen a significant investment, with a $60 million state grant aimed at moving half of Skid Row's homeless population into housing and providing them with essential services over the next three years. This plan includes the creation of interim housing beds, enriched services for those with complex health needs, and a 'Safe Landing' facility for immediate assistance. Despite these efforts, the challenges remain daunting, with high concentrations of homelessness, addiction, and mental health issues. The situation calls for a multi-faceted approach that includes not only immediate relief but also long-term strategies addressing the root causes of homelessness, such as affordable housing and employment opportunities. The plight of Skid Row's residents is a humanitarian concern that requires ongoing attention and action from both public and private sectors to foster a sustainable and compassionate resolution.

Once you are out here, you are pretty much forgotten. A lost soul.

I was there in 85, I would never thought it could get this bad, there was a few transients out at Venice Beach and they would sleep out there but nowhere else, Near the Mission was the only street where we knew it as Skid Row, this is sad, I have never voted in my life and never will, none of them care enough to do anything.

Some break easier than others, and are never whole again.

Appreciate the video. Not many “zombies” out on this day. Everyone seemed pretty sober. LA ain’t no Kensington. I didn’t see anybody with the Tranq slouch

Thanks S.L. for this info in the vid. WOW! Not sure if you are the one who presented in another vid, a man called Mango.?
He's on Skid Row, actively, and has ideas good ones on how to help fix this predicament? He has a website and I believe he's on Insta? I tried his website, it must not be working? or I have the incorrect one. Can you find him? OK You Be Good

This is the result of lacking purpose and meaning coupled with more availability and easier access to drugs. For those who are trying to make it out, your purpose must be greater than your addiction.

A lot of the problem is Gavin Newsome and Democratic policies in regards to the growing homeless people especially those with mental health issues, because they keep shutting down board and care homes that gave these people housing and kept them off the streets in the first place, in 2000 there was 235 board and care homes, sober living and transitional housing for them to live in, some of which housed 80 to 200 people in makeshift motels with nursing staff and food, paid by social security and medi cal and systemicly Los Angeles started to shutdown these homes for minor violations and didn't stop to realize where the hell these people are going to go to, Today in 2024 there are 2 homes in Los Angeles county for board and care, Orange county had 128 in 2000 they now have 8, Newsome, Brown and every other democratic governor has created this problem by telling housing authority to violate these places not helping them like a hospital so now you why there's so many crazy homeless people because they shut down the housing for them ask any DMH social worker they will tell you the same it happened with the not in my neighborhood proposition and now it's everyone's problem.

Getting worse daily and it's damaged too much to fix

Take the profits and investment capital groups out of the housing equation. That's the only way, under capitalism, to get proper amounts of low and middle income housing built.
