Will's Homeless Coalition Stories

Homelessness in San Francisco is a major problem. Everyone knows that. If you don't know that, then walk around the Tenderloin. The city has come up with countless programs try to end homelessness. Many non-profit organizations exist in trying to reduce homelessness. But how much of all this is working?

This is where the Coalition of Homeless comes in. It's there to ask these question, but further more, make sure the answer to whether the programs are working is, yes.

Inside the Coalition, I had the opportunity to meet with a sub-group Families and Immigrant, a Hispanic support group that currently are fighting for better housing for low-income families. There, you see people who are in low-income brackets working together trying to make a better living not just for themselves, but for the city all together.
