It's good to see so many of you willing to feed the homeless, help them with the basics. Its desperately needed in this country. But there's a step or two after that. Helping them get lives back, those that need help with addictions, those that have lost jobs and fallen down on their luck, those that were tricked and lost everything. No two stories are the same.

Its something I'd like to help with, where I can. We have the money to do it, all of us, and we could make such a difference. Think about it, you set someone up to do this kind of thing in another town. We can make Lawrence a better place but what about other cities. And I know we can't take on the world. I do. But we could start something amazing

There's no feeling like being cold, alone, afraid for those you love, knowing there's no way out, because anywhere you look its just more hurt and there isn't always a way out.

How are you little brother? Settling, I know its a very odd place sometimes. And being in this inn, is it...upsetting you?

	The inn isn't upsetting. It's not like it was. There's something you and Enjolras aren't telling me though. (Reply to this) (Thread)

That's a rather big part of what Robin is trying to do, actually. It's more than just feeding the people. We want them to be able to get back on their feet, too. We're working with local organizations to help provide work for these people. We're hoping to provide showers and changes of clothing so they can interview and attend work without feeling ashamed to do so.

I hope it helps. I know it'll never be enough, we can't help everyone, but I think it'll make some impact, at least.

	I'll admit, I don't know all of you guys' plans, but is a housing aspect being looked into? Something temporary, somewhere they could stay while they get back into the swing of it all? Sort of like halfway housing districts or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~It's becoming rather clear what I'm doing is missing the mark completely~~ Getting this organised has been one thing, but I have considered it. Caroline mentioned it earlier on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Doesn't stop either. I've been clean for a while, but I will always be an addict. Though I can shower and change clothes for myself, for the record. I live in a nice house, even. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
