Counting homeless people is challenging. But without accurate data it’s hard to make decisions about funding, support programs, and healthcare. Faulty data can only get us faulty solutions. How does your city count the unhoused people in your area?

Thomas lives in a homeless shelter with his wife and four daughters. After a bad experience with a slumlord, the family ended up couch surfing. They eventually found a family shelter to take them, but not before sleeping in their car for a period of time. https://t.co/RUjrnXRkTu

After a broken marriage, Roshad "lost it". He found it hard to deal with the emotions and started to drink. His car broke down. Roshad ran into the wrong people at the wrong time and was robbed. He lost everything and ended up homeless.

Originally from San Jose, Jessy says homelessness has made her a better person. Although I do not wish homelessness on anyone, I can agree that homelessness has made me a better person, too.

Homeless sweeps DO NOTHING TO SOLVE HOMELESSNESS! They make homelessness worse. For example, Michelle says she loses all of her belongings 50% of the time. One time, she was only allowed to take her backpack but didn't have time to pack her medications.

Nobody should have to live on the streets or in housing that is unfit for human life.

But that's the reality for over 270,000 households in England today.

Shelter is a human right. Everybody deserves a secure roof over their heads and access to life's basic essentials.
