    What’s the worst / craziest case you’ve seen?

    Okay this isn’t about the worst/craziest, but what percentage of people are just plain down on their luck and actually want to have stable housing/job? It seems like there are a lot of homeless for whom this just isn’t a realistic aspiration, be it from drugs, mental health, or whatever.

    What are some life lessons you’ve learned from the people you see? Any advice they’ve given you that’s been in your head rent free?

    There are any peers in the service you’re working?
    Which kind of stability do you have? Where does your shelter gain most of the fundings?
    What are the rules for using illegals drugs, using prescribed ones, and sex work?

    A lot of homeless are scared of going to shelters. Why is that? What can solve that?

    What are the parameters for an AMA?

    Because people often don’t respond, or don’t seem to understand the purpose of the sub.

    I’m very curious to hear about OP’s experiences, where did they go?
