What I would like to see is an association of agencies set up to coordinate the full spectrum of services to help people survive on, and hopefully get off of the street. Services such as:
- Addiction
- Food/Shelter
- Family Services/ Counciling
- Education and employment
- Mental Health
- Medical Care
This association should then print out booklets of tickets that are available at every convienence and come with a tax receipt. Each ticket should have an address, phone number, graphical directions, etc. to a center were the homeless can get help.
People should buy these tickets and hand them to people on the street begging for change.
