Every day at 5pm (summer) 4 pm winter a few of the local churches feed the homeless population behind one of the local law offices. The price for the meal or a haircut is to listen to one of the pastors, preach.

Such important documentation, Chris!

Sad and tragic!!

How many are “new” to the street and how many are suffering from mental illness?

It's always hard to tell. The one guy sitting cross legged was a computer tech and lost his job and in the end, his family. He did not drink, nor smoke but was just plain hungry. I gave him $50 so he could buy a burn phone and get return calls from potential employers. Otherwise, he had to make a fairly long trek from the shelter to the library where he could get emails.

The second, third and fourth people are pretty much in the mentally handicapped department.
