Numerous Claims of ‘Ended’ Veteran Homelessness is a LIE – Black & Blonde Media

SN (Join to see) - I agree with you so far, especially ion the well-compensated non-profits with flowery mission statements.
As a Civil Affairs guy, I am all about measures of performance. If it works, resource it; if it doesn't work, marginalize it.
What do you need personally that you don't get today?
You hint at responsiveness and caring, but how does one measure caring?
Is it money that is lacking, a safe place to go, jobs programs. I know that there are tons of programs through the VA and elsewhere, but they don't seem to reach you. Why not, in your view?

One of the ongoing frustrations of social media is that documented 3% click rate regarding links. I've documented the turmoil we've personally experienced and named names. I lost my job in 2014 and as I'm repeatedly told I'm "overqualified" and it's currently easier for employers to hire the young and cheap, good employment (we don't have minimum wage bills) was always the path to independence. I've also shown that one reason homeless veterans aren't a public imperative is that it really doesn't affect the officer class: https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2017/04/02/have-you-ever-heard-of-a-homeless-veteran-officer/ They have their own network and hook each other up. If homelessness was an officer issue, we all know it would be approached in a much different manner.

We lived in our 2012 Buick Enclave which we no longer have, and all the while been jerked around by those who (again) have no sense of urgency.
