Kind of random but..

I didn't find out about this program until way later though.

If I'm homeless someplace I just ask other homeless. But there are always tips and tricks you find out later. I find it ridiculous that the most difficult thing about being homeless is just finding someplace to sleep. Shelters tend to be full in recent years.

Yes exactly I dealt with all this. My father, and I would get on the MAX system to get out of the rain, we were kicked out of everywhere else. At night we used to sleep in front of city hall, with the occupy Portland movement. Even still a team of police officer's would roust us at six in the morning saying, "It's time to pack up your sleeping material."

We had an Occupy movement on IU campus around that time. But I don't recall if I was homeless during that time. At one point that I was homeless I even had a regular day job, I just didn't make enough to get an apartment. It's really dangerous for homeless girls. I know one that was raped 3 times till she got a pit bull, another was almost raped at knife point till others showed up and scared him off. (both were homeless teen girls)

Yeah that's horrible I wish I could do something to help those people. I am just a measly peasant though.

The girl that almost got raped at knife point, my roommate and I let her stay at our place for awhile but her boyfriend moved in and they started doing mad drugs, Meth, Opium and other stuff. We finally had to kick them out.

Yeah that's the thing people have to want to help themselves, otherwise helping them often enables them.
