Faces of Poverty

There are just over 11 million people living in Ohio. Of the 11 million, 147,000 of our fellow Ohioans experience homelessness each year. Think about this for a moment; over 13% of our state population each year is homeless - without a home.
Here are a few questions for us to consider over the next few weeks;

1. What is the number one cause of a person or persons becoming homeless?
2. What contribution to homelessness does lack of affordable housing cause?
3. If we can end homelessness for a single individual or family, can we end it for an entire community?
