We Are All Homeless Analysis

There are many factors that motivated Mr. Baronet to undertake his project “We Are All Homeless”. The first factor is that he wanted individuals who aren’t homeless to understand why homeless people have these signs. These signs are more than words, they tell stories and the experiences of homeless people. The second factor is that he wanted to contribute more to the homeless community. He stated that he felt guilty and discomfort whenever he passed a homeless person. The third factor is that he genuinely wanted to aid homeless people, let the world know their lives as a living homeless person and contribute to their community in his own way. His efforts with this project was helpful by that he showed another side of the homeless life to people

This website displays that there are ways you can help homelessness people from all over the world. I also liked that you can help an individual person because in that way, there is more of a connection with the person. The categories that interested me the most is employment and housing. I find these categories interesting because I deal with both of them in my everyday life. It is important for one to have a job/career so they can also have a space to live in. Unfortunately, we live in a world today where finding a decent job can become stressful. The only concern I have for the helping approach is if the person takes advantage of the person donating the money. For example, if I first helped a person purchase a laptop and a newer version is released, they ask me again to donate money so they could get the newer laptop. If I had 200 dollars to donate, I would give the money to any family that need food or water. The reason I would do this is because every human deserves a meal and clean water. Without these basic and vital needs, it would be very difficult for any family to survive, especially ones with children. This decision reflects my personal values by that family is a significant part of my life. I tend to put my family first before anything else, I would not want to see other families

The first approach is the “We are all homeless” project. The pro of this approach is that it highlights the struggles and life experiences of homeless people through art. The con of this project is that unlike the other approaches, it doesn’t provide any type of benefits for the homeless person. It doesn’t offer shelter, food or water. It only offers a time for the homeless person to tell their story and showcase their signs. The second approach is the Handup approach. The pro of this approach is that people can make donations to certain categories of their interest and get a better insight of what that person needs. However, the con is that is somewhat difficult to tell if the person actually does need the product or is taking advantage what they are recieving. The third approach is the Oasis Book Club. The pros include the four programs that are offered for homeless people. The cons is that they can’t offer anytime of housing for the homeless individual. The last approach is the Housing First model. The pro of this approach is that it finds a permanent home for the homelessness as soon as possible. The con of this approach is that the individual/family may stay at the permanent resident as long as possible but may need other attention for other needs. For example, many homeless people experiencing mental illness and need medical attention but have to stay at one
