Help for the never been homeless until now
I have been homeless for 8 months with my minor child. The local homeless council wouldn't help us with housing because I'm sane and don't have a drug problem and I'm not wrapped up in the system for a crime. They seem to only house people with mental issues or drug problems. My family was forced on the street and never been homeless a day in our lives and they turned us away and said they wouldn't help us. We need better non profits for are about helping everyone not just people with issues. Homeless is homeless. I have a small child. And they refused us. How horrible is this town? Probably the most illest.

I agree and in the same situation. It is so disappointing that the city is catering to everyone else. How do they sleep at night knowing that they are sheltering people who are more than likely to continue to be homeless regardless of services and the individuals who haven’t been homeless before and especially those who have children don’t have any services and or help yet they would be more beneficial to any homeless program being as they have been stable and never needed help before and would benefit greatly and strive on the help they give to those who take up funds to turn around and continue to live homeless willingly. My child has been sleeping in the car with my husband and I for months and all I hear is everything is always at capacity and any shelter program or anything is for singles couples and addicts. The fact that they are absolutely fine and find it acceptable for children to suffer and be at risk so they can cater to anyone without kids

That’s the problem with Washington state leaders!! They want to help those that don’t want to help themselves. Good people like you trying to help themselves they refuse to help. Washington state needs to rethink what they are doing! I have lived in Vancouver Washington my whole life and now I am ashamed to say I live here. If I did not have to help my elderly father I would move. When I am able I will move out of Washington state!
