This is a documentary of the homeless people in Chicago. I find this video very interesting because they have real people on the streets telling their stories. Some are on the streets because of divorce, inadequate education, lack of affordable housing, and being in the service and becoming handicap. There is a place called The Pacific Garden Mission and most of the homeless say that it is hell there. Once you have been in there you never want to return and would rather sleep in the cold. This place in not funded by state or government. They also talk about why there is still run down neighborhoods and half finished housing. Most contractors do not want to finish and do business in low income areas because they will not profit. This video really shows the actually live footage of being poor and surviving.
