12:50 am
12:51 am
so i said. oh magic. my family has. and i don't want to. talk like your one another would be right. i call it the egyptian novelist now you must who says nothing because the face of a sad life is a graphic. in a psychological sense a subsidy to people that are before deprived early voting create conditions for themselves. keeping the creation going. because the way to cope with emotion that their ition for example might be might be to be get very hostile. and be rejected. and that's going to reinforce your sense of
12:52 am
being rejected in the 1st place. or you might to deal with the pain that some terrible turn to addictions. and all the addictions are always about pain and my mantra is not why the addiction but why the pain and i'm sure that others to physiology psychologically spiritually. so then people started engaging additions as a way of dealing with their pain but that addition of the 1st true that i state that . because failure is going to be with an addict the reason of the soul is very difficult and painful to do so but for the addict it reinforces that i'm all alone in the reader for me and which makes them further. inclined to engage in addictive behavior to suit that theme of sex trade worker a 27 year old said to me when i asked her what heroin did for her she said the 1st and i did heroin it felt like a war so. i was just saying it she experience the sense of love and connection which is what the endorphins do in the brain. and they die and detox
12:53 am
a few years ago 6 was something muscles tattoo scars earing everything but if i 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 but it's like when you're 3 years old and you're shaving because you're sick as a kid and your mother wraps you know one blanket puts you in her lap and you just don't want chicken soup that's what their own feeling. is starting with love. now then you ask why can't people give it up they can't give it up because the only way they found that they can have pain relief and know i have pleasure and delight and reward and a sense of connection. so homelessness in the chronically homeless may be seen as a coping mechanism.
12:54 am
thank you sir now you say pull up a chair when there is day i. am. surprised not coming here we have a lot of that. the arch facility is what we call a low demand shelter their. 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 pleads that
12:55 am
we're not requiring any for just a short in a program or service in order to be in the building there's not going to be a requirement for you to be sober to be in the building you can come in 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 offical. what we've got right now is welcome to our 3rd floor this is our dormitory for here at the arch we were originally constructed on this property as a 100 bed facility they knew when they built that it was under built probably
12:56 am
didn't know that it was in the under built as it actually is today we sleep 230 min in this facility every night i was the 100 beds that we were created with take a look at the dormitories. themselves during the night sleep we're going to sleep 100 minutes here there are case management clients they're in a plan they're in a program they're working on some goals that they've set through their program it may be incomes to build the it may be sobriety there's a lot of different kinds of things that case management will address but overnight 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 in our case management program each bit is assigned overnight to a specific individual so we'll have on this floor there are 100 bunk beds and then overnight the way we get to the 230 is we also have some mats that go down the
12:57 am
floors and we're sleeping in places in this building that we were never really intended to 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 a men's over night shelter the demographic for homelessness across the nation is changed in austin so different and i think that's one of the things that we as a community have got to address is the systemic generalization of homelessness and the regenerations of homeless people walking through our doors sometimes during the
12:58 am
day and it's just kind of 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. shelter is a band aid to the issue of almost really the solution 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 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 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 as a major program of their. what the hell happened right before that. match geysers financial survival guide liquid those that you can convert is a cash quite easily. to keep in mind to trick me into a place. or. join me every.
