MERCY MINISTRIES

Most homeless people are either temporarily homeless,
as the result of a crisis such as loss of a job, or persistently
homeless, due to chronic disabilities such as substance abuse
and mental illness. The persistently homeless present our
society with one of the most vexing, difficult and expensive
problems to solve. Their chronic disabilities render many of
them unemployable, except for occasional day labor jobs.
