homeless crisis's top 3 resources

My first source is an article from nymag.com called, “Why It's So Hard to Stop Being Homeless in New York,” by D.W. Gibson.  I found this article very consistent because it brings an understanding of why the city’s homeless crisis continues to get worse each year.  It also expresses eight true-life stories of individuals who were still struggling to get by with homelessness as examples of how serious the situation is today.  

The second source is a article called “7 Policies to End Family Homelessness” from shelterforce.org, an independent, non-academic publication that supports low-income families, affordable housing and neighborhood stabilization.  This website suggests ways in ending homelessness in New York and also prevent homeless from resurrecting.

The third source is povertyhistory.org.  This website shows a vast collection of historical events and stories about poverty and homelessness, from dated 1650 of Early New York to the Urban Poverty era of 1977 and beyond. The website is run by the Institute for Children, Poverty, and Homelessness (ICPH), an independent nonprofit research and policy-analysis organization that focuses on the complex issues of family homelessness and informs the general public about these issues.
