when someone has to re-enter society from treatment or incarceration, there are many hurdles they must cross to achieve everything needed to become a member of society again.
systemic gaps
people slip through the cracks every day in the systems in place, whether they are simply over the assistance limit, unwell, struggling with addiction, or miss an appointment.
community uninvolvement
out of sight, out of mind, for many community citizens, the gravity of the housing crisis isn’t noticed or acknowledged, because it doesn’t apply to them or their loved ones.
obstacles of stability
not having an id, a vehicle, a clean drug test, and even in some cases, references, can prevent someone from being accepted by a traditional shelter.
