Summary

The author says that the economical depression has made the number of homelessness reach to the most this year. Even though the shelter system has already been prepared for homelessness, there are still problems in the system. Though the organization in New York looks focusing on helping homelessness, the new rule was valid for only 2 years.

Even though he evaluates the services that organization is doing for homelessness, I think the services cannot support them completely as the author stated in the very first statement on the first paragraph that New Yorkers in and out of government should be concerned about homelessness. Because the services can make some family difficult to get welfare and food-stamp benefits. Also, the advocates are predicting disaster when the subsidies run out.
