this is a rant just a warning

Im a case manager that helps homeless vets get long term housing and there’s something called permanent supportive housing. they want me document to show there was no gaps in their time being homeless (its a 1 year minimum) or to show 4 times (lapses) becoming homeless. its documented by having providers give them services (documented on a homeless data base) or have an observation of their living situation that got noted etc.

fucking bullshit that they can’t accidentally give someone who was only homeless 11 months or who was homeless 11 months housed 1 month but became homeless again. this is infuriating lmao ughhhhh why cant we just give people homes fuck

      nono all of my clients have to be under the designation “literally homeless”. its a matter of how homeless are you really tho fucking vile. im glad i have different tools for the “homeless but not hopeless” bc the process in my OP is basically only for people who will never be able to be permanently housed for one reason or another. the rest can get some help as a treat but need to figure alot out on their own. I wish i could walk all of them through but i don’t have time or resources for them sadly. gotta ration my time so no one falls through the cracks.
