"Project Homeless Connect" is an extremely popular program in San Francisco that begins the process of reclaiming people from homelessness.
This video is an overview of the services offered, the people who volunteer, the ways that businesses can contribute.
To get involved with PHC visit: www.sfconnect.org
This video was produced by Rich Bartlebaugh at SFGTV as part of the "City in Focus" magazine series.
Edmonton just ran it's first Homeless Connect. I was eager to see what it is like in practice. The video shows what a fantastic program it is.
The campaign brings dignity in to the whole process, not to mention helping the homeless get to needed services much faster.
To the naysayer below, how do you plan on sending the homeless "elsewhere"? I suggest that programs like this gives them choices, and a chance to move where they can be safe and productive. Bravo to Homeless Connect.
It is absolutely inefficient and asinine to help these people remain in San Francisco.
Last time I checked, major metropolitan areas are HIGH INCOME, HIGH ACTIVITY areas.
So, doing the math, it is costly and a losing battle to keep these problematic people in the area. They are not willing to personally contribute what it takes to remain in the city.
SO IT IS JUST LIFE ON GOVERNMENT DOLE.
nothing new here. so to everyone,
Please stop wasting my tax dollars.
send them where it costs less

We do have services under one roof but not enough with most services scattered throughout Los Angeles - SFO over LAX in assisting homeless people.
