1:36 am
parking lots they y.m.c.a. got out of the business you know when i was growing up there's no such thing as homes there's no sick. needs of people who had problems you know skid row and these types of things out the whole of farms and we didn't have a population so big that we coined a phrase and named it homelessness you know and now it's become ingrained in our society but we know that if we can get the attention the american people and if they can really understand. this one thing that you can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing. if we can get them to understand that and we can bring the solution because everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it is. we're not.
1:37 am
it's grew out of your. scope so he's going to rip syrup in downtown it's. oh. yeah we did that we're going to call that you've already. made a. pretty good movie. but my 6 point you could see. if you'd go along this is you know because this is you know i'm going on the. i'm

1:44 am
once the 1st storm that came through. i woke up under. 4 inches of snow and. now look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. i robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders that conflict with the 1st law. should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point only a screen is to create. every one of the shia. areas in with artificial intelligence where something that the.
1:45 am
robot must protect its own existence has access for the. first night i was almost. carry. i didn't have the. right. kinds of scary people. i mean there's all kinds of
1:46 am
scary people right. in i'm from the mountains i'm from up in the mountains and then i get dropped down out here is. in the middle of the book down there you've got bugs. rog just. where do you get any worse thing you can. do you. seen it watched it in a bird. i was a girl stabbed. it was on the news here i was right there i would like. you know i'd seen it norton. and right next to it everything else was cut next to get guys of the drunk tank of . those we have heard right through you know.
1:47 am
they're all gone. past where most. my mom might well my father killed the cell phones 5 story. there my step dad it was my dad because i didn't even know my dad really. here he was a lumberjack up there and careless of them can set a tree fall on. him cut down a tree last thing he remembered was the tree hit the ground so he got parallel. he died i was in prison he died. to. my mom she died 6 of double pneumonia in 2005. but. thank you lord for be my friend says he holds near again in the love your brother.
1:48 am
thank you for helping me thank you for being one. and i will get by another day i will get by another day because i will. if you had a magic wand waving giving everyone would you get. my family back. to my grandmother. or have. you want to know what i just looked. at my girl back to me right through. there don't. let me think. i didn't mean it but.
1:49 am
i know you know i did i know it. might you wanted to know. so i said that. magic. has owed. you want to know what the right. course did you should know this no you my foo says nothing records the affairs of a sad life is a graphic view of the human body in a psychological sense especially to people that if deprived early. well then create conditions for themselves. parisian growing. because the
1:50 am
way to cope with emotion that there isn't for example might. be get very hostile. you're going to be rejected. and that's going to reinforce your sense of being rejected in the 1st place. or you're my to do with the pain that some variable turn to addictions and all the additions are always about. my mantra is not why the additional weight of pain and i'm sure that others do physiologically psychologically spiritually. so then people started engaging additions as a way of dealing with their pain but that addiction with 1st. because center is going to deal with an addict reasonably so it's very difficult being produced but for the addict is reinforces that i'm all alone as a reader for me which makes them further. inclined to engage in illegal behavior in . a sex trade worker 27 year old said to me when i asked her what her own for the
1:51 am
1st time i did her on it. and what she's saying she experiences sense of love and connection which is what the endorphins do in the brain. detox a few years ago. something muscles had to scars hearing everything that it was walking towards me in an alley i'd run the other way when i asked him whether they're into for you and he said i don't tell you this dog was like when you're 3 years old and you're sharing because you're sick as a kid and your mother actually no one blanket put you on her lap and she's don't want chicken soup with their own. love. then you ask why can't people give it up they can't give it up because the only way they found the pain relief and pleasure and delight and reward and a sense of connection. so homelessness in the chronically homeless may be seen as
1:52 am
a coping mechanism. thank you sir. you say all of the charity there is day and. there was a. surprise or not coming year we had a lot of that. was the arch facility is what we call
1:53 am
a low demand shelter there very low demand is that we don't ask you to do anything it's just that they can and it will walk through the door other than their security behavior guidelines for us the definition of loaded been sheltering fluids that we're not requiring any for just a short in a program or service in order to be in the building there is not going to be a requirement for you to be sober to be in the building you can come in and under the influence of drugs or alcohol we just can't have you bringing it in with you so it's an opportunity to work with our clientele on sobriety issues and we'd much rather have them inside the building and under the influence than in the safety concern on the office of the.
1:54 am
what we've got right now is welcome to our 3rd floor this is our dormitory floor here at the arch we were originally constructed on this property is a 100 bed facility and they knew when they built that it was under built probably didn't know that it was in those under built as it actually is today we sleep 230 min in this facility every night versus the 100 beds that we were created with but we're going to take a look at the dormitories themselves during the nicely we're going to sleep 100 minutes here there are case management clients there in a plan they're in a program they're working on some goals that they step through their program it may be in comes to build the it may be sobriety there's a lot of different kinds of things that case management will address but over night they get to sleep in our dormitories. which are bunk bed style we have some storage and underneath each bed they love being able to store their own stuff and because they're in our shelter program there in our case management
1:55 am
program each bed is assigned overnight to a specific individual so we'll have on this floor there are 100 beds and then overnight the way we get to the 230 is we also have some mats that go down the floors and we're sleeping in places in this building that we were never really intended sleep including our lobby our 2 conference rooms as well as our dining room. in our overall population profile is a 35 to 45 year old caucasian male struggling with mental health drug and alcohol addiction we see a lot of veterans in that mix too and then we've got a lot of women and children although this is i'm in the overnight shelter the demographic for homelessness. across the nation is changed in austin no different and i think that's one of the things that we as
1:56 am
a community have got to address is the systemic generalization of homelessness and the regeneration of people walking through our doors sometimes during the day and it's just something we've got to get on. so prince this is a shelter provider but we're also a housing provider we recognize the necessity of shelter but we do look at shelter as a band aid to the issue of almost really the solution for homelessness is house if you've got limited housing opportunities you've got limited opportunities to house the homeless so it's really been a push in our community to get more housing stock on the ground so that we can solve homelessness and not just band-aid it was shelter. without housing report was we put it out in 2006 we formed rat. and made
1:57 am
2005 and immediately started. funding trends and affordable housing and both were all through the u.s.d.a. u.s. department of agriculture and urban through housing and urban development and because we wanted to look at we know the shelter system started in the late 82 early 83 and by mid 1983 was across the country by 1987 the federal government had passed almost funding as a major program of their. what the hell happened right before that. draws in conflict known as not going to is now a very hot you tell you what you need to do and it is america in 2020 acting out similar. bents the bolshevik revolution in 1970.
1:58 am

1:59 am
promise us as an american citizen native on top that's tied up in a top 5 feet of us to die and i think. i would vote for a republican over trump i would vote for anyone who is not you and has half a brain know defeat don't try. to feel that. yeah my 2nd wife. she can handle. she and i divorce because our trouble is elected president and i floated for him and she can't stand for. that when the most important election. in our history is mr the months to go before the next presidential election how is the atmosphere in the us now i. want to the highest. they do. just
