The topic of my article is about the increase of homeless veterans. “Homeless survey’s attention to veterans an appropriate response” is the title of my article. My article is from Longview News Journal or here. The amount of homeless veterans has lately increased. Due to disorders or physical problems veterans have not been able to work. This causes them to be out on the streets, homeless. They have recently found that veterans are usually the last people to ask for help because they want to take care of themselves. Although they want to, some cannot do so which leads them in this situation. Not only veteran but other homeless people should should seek the help they need and try their very best to get back on there feet. I feel that it’s good many people are working so hard to end homeless for everyone. This affects me because it affects people and towns everywhere. Some of the veterans do have disabilities from being in the military or just growing older. This is making them unable to work. Being unable to work means no income and puts them in the position they are in today. With this affecting towns and cities this affects the world. It’s difficult for the homeless to get back on their feet, but with this out stretched arm it must be easier. It’s up to them if they are willing to take they help that is offered. Veterans has served our country and now it’s our turn to give back. Although I feel the help is useful, they also need to work with the service that is helping them. The homeless shouldn’t push away, but willingly take the help they need.
