Homeless in Alabama

Homelessness is something none of us like to talk about. It makes most of us very uncomfortable. Wikipedia defines Homelessness as a person without a regular dwelling. People who are homeless, for whatever particular reason are unable to maintain a secure and safe dwelling.

The total Homeless population for the State of Alabama is over 4,600 people including over 500 Veterans. No one deserves to be homeless especially not someone who put their life in danger to defend our nation. In the Shoals Area, including Franklin, Lauderdale and Colbert County there are over 200 children. In my opinion, that is a travesty and an embarrassment.
