How can families help the homeless?
Families can help the homeless by providing shelter. My church opens its social hall for the homeless to sleep once a month during the rainy season. They have to be supervised to make sure they are orderly and leave everything clean. They are usually fed a hot meal. You were born in Jamaica, West Indies. When you came to live in America was it difficult for you to get settled in a new country? I came to relatives in the United States, but as soon as I got a job I lived at the YWCA and went to college at nights. Are there differences about being homeless in Jamaica and homeless in the United States? When I lived in Jamaica, there weren’t any homeless people around. I can’t say how it is for these times, but I do know the concept of extended families was popular then and is still in force. People would let a homeless person stay in a room off the outdoor kitchen. But then, in Jamaica there are no winters to be concerned about; only hurricanes.
