Do you feel helpless or inconvenienced when you loose power, cable or phone? Do you at least have food, clothes & shelter? Imagine going without these necessities for weeks, months, years - let alone a permanent structure to live in.
No roof to hold over your own. It could happen to you.
Facts:
- 13,000 people in Hawaii were homeless and went without in 2004.
- The homeless cite difficulty securing affordable housing (48%), health problems (24%), family conflict (19%), and unemployment (18%) as the origins of their situations
