and will be our 1st priority usually donnelly's presuppose there will be no compromise. one of the points that we really felt was important to get across when you're talking about cause and effect is priorities if nobody's making money on it i not a commodity then it has no value and it shouldn't it isn't a priority of the federal government so housing that was just from about people that was not a commodity that was just a ballet being up to their responsibilities of the federal government and so our

united nations have in the charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights in the dignity and worth of the human person and in equal rights. education that it's time to give any. source seems to. me and it's when. it's considered. just general right actually the u.s. doesn't accept the universal declaration that it's supposed to reject most. of that there are 3 parts to this civic and political rights. there's a social and economic. and there's cultural. and they're all are. the
9:38 pm
u.s. doesn't just dismiss is the cultural community. rejects you know. politicians have concluded that there is no answer because the answer requires resources i don't believe that's true i think that housing is the answer to homelessness that you have to have supportive housing yet we're not. willing to prioritize that as cited in the crazy thing is that we're paying for it anyway we jail a homeless person is san francisco it cost $140.00 a night and that's about what it costs and some. fairly nice hotels outside of the city yet we insist on believing that criminalization of almost this is the answer that if we can use people for being homeless and being mentally ill that they're going to cure themselves and be off the streets when in

9:47 pm
overall tapestry of armistice i mean everybody's breaks for their children 1st of all and rightly so and there is the veteran and then there was the mentally ill. you were the resist specific pollution only women that are having there is specific needs to a we are going to do enough so you know we made it a priority and by that we pushed through in it any beds available to them or to listen to a year ago there were hardly any beds available for them and it's an unsafe for place for women to. tell all of gotos to not walk in the street a lot at night in a dark neighborhood that's the sort of imagine that you have no work to go. or know what i did when something. or were.
9:48 pm
were. in the us is income inequality a good way to figure out which song to beat your on is with your company planes on h.b.o. . you should like workers calling for a much higher minimum wage workers at mcdonald's wendy's domino's pizza and more will want not the jobs. they were looking to federal 'd minimum wage is one created $938.00 under the fair labor standards act ok which was in response to a 1000000 people wandering our nation looking for jobs it was the same and after the depression congress got together and started to say well we should instead a standard that ensures that if somebody puts their 40 hours in a week they can afford the basics so. it makes sense and makes sense to me it makes sense to you so we take that in the brace that but the problem is they never index
9:49 pm
it anything so they just keep picking this number out of the year and those halves of congress fight over debate over it and go do that and that and it and it back and forth and so. you know maybe get raised a dollar maybe it's $0.75 whatever so we sort of started this problem backwards you know we now have $3500000.00 people experiencing homelessness in this nation and what we could tell that house the homeless. there's tremendous efforts to try and deal with the fallout you know. some more successful than others some different approaches like housing 1st get off the streets and then start dealing with them you know it's one you know we believe that that's an organization says 1989 so you know that's approach we are. and i used to look at this population as. who they are the breakdown the better and. recently released people
9:50 pm
out of the penal system single women single women with children so this is abusers alcoholics. really really all the different factions but now we stood back and looked at the folly of that approach and realize that in order to really deal with it in this society which is couples we view them as. this whole this group falls 'd into 22 factions those who can work and those who can't work so we walk away with this way it's 77 dollars in the quarter and 'd but i i live in america and anybody who's lived in america has traveled anybody who's traveled is travel to some place which is more expensive than where they came from and they travel someplace with less expense right now the government uses the concept of one size fits all. so they keep doing it's like 70 court for everybody
9:51 pm
so whether you lose in washington d.c. or with the harley engine texas they're going to set it to 7 decor right now this talk of raising it to 10 dollars an hour well the day that that's passed a $10.00 an hour that's the president is promoting for. something to get one minimum wage homeless worker off the streets of washington. at the same time that $10.00 an hour wage is going to hurt small business and will america and make no mistake most of america is ruled they're trying to push a round. peg in a square hole and they've been doing it over and over again and what happens is it's a very soft mork approach to our nation is made of a 1000. so nice you know we devise. a single national formula based on existing government guidelines.
9:54 pm
in the woeful. t.v. you can hear people talking. that i you. know you were me do you want to let me ringback see do you can help me with it. forever even if you have to. do them all to. be. honest. with. you. so here their own home we have a family show for women shelter in them and shelter so one of the big fears that our families have when they come down from the shelter is that all of a sudden the child and family services is going to be involved in their getting their kids away i mean working very closely with. the c.p.s.
9:55 pm
. we work very hard to reassure families that that that's not how it works their families are also subject to the whims of whether it's economic instability or family instability or health problems. family is run out of resources and they're not able to stay in apartment in the more stay with family or stay with friends or save the hotel. but a lot of times by the time the families that walk through those doors they've exhausted all of those resources. how are you getting so child oh yes so we have this huge playground there's. you know they have the ramp for all of the kids the stuff like that and they still are still. they have this grassy area over here we try to keep the kids away from the gate just because of the semen on because this is the men's side of the shelter we are slide in the
9:56 pm
playground for the kids and stuff like that. i've been on and off homelessness since having for the 1st 6 months of his life we were stable and then i lost my job which intel lost my burman. but for you know for after that 6 months we did pretty well you know we stayed with friends here and there we stayed with family but it sank i kind of started to feel like i was a burden these people you know because then they have to deal with my kid having as little fits in this than the others so you know i got another job and i was paying for hotel rooms you know 2 weeks out of each paycheck and i just got really expensive really pricey so you getting you're just like all right well i'm going to keep doing it i'm going to do it i got to get up i got to work. anyway having a kid a child with special abilities you kind of you don't really get much scouting time expression when you're single parent you don't at all you're constantly on the go
9:57 pm
on doing this doing that picking up this picking up that. so you resort to of course a drug that makes you stay awake. there isn't that surprisingly i got off it by myself. i didn't go to rehab or anything i just kind of kicked it i've been clean for 3 months and we've been you know. there are about 150 beds in this large storm area. for families who have small children it will be like if it's a single mom in a small one or 2 year old will share one of these small little bunks. and each family is allowed one of these tow it's her person so this has to be able to fit basically all of your earthly belongings and. that's not a lot of space as you can tell and it's tough for families.
9:58 pm
and one of the great frustrations here in salt lake is that there's a substantial lack of affordable housing and so that's one of the barriers that clients have is finding a place that they can continue to afford after our assistance and clients a lot of times face other barriers to getting housing whether it's on their criminal background or they have evictions from prior apartments and so it can sometimes be really difficult for clients to find a place to live that will accept them with their background or with the funding from their own home and to help them get out of the rut that their him.
