Today I went to the grocery store and inside in front of the UPS store I saw this.  I am sure this is everything this person owns and now he is out on the street in the rain and I am warm and dry.

Ironically it is the tech boom that has made housing unaffordable for so many.  "Many of the homeless work regular jobs, in some cases serving the very people whose sky-high net worth is the reason housing has become unaffordable for so many." AP

In one school in the heart of Silicon Valley, 44% of the students identify as homeless. 

Here are the National Statistics about the impact of homelessness on students. 
  • 3x's more likely to be placed in special education programs
  • 2x's more likely to miss school
  • 4x's more likely to drop out of school
  • More likely to have emotional and behavioral problems.  ​​
