Homeless people on the Holidays

This article discusses the topic of homeless people not having a place to stay for the holidays. Its very depressing when homeless people have to stay in a room full with forty strangers in order to celebrate the holidays rather than be around their loved ones. In the article a man named Danny was lucky that he had family to let him stay for the holidays. He was a young man who took his chances and pursued his long time aspirations in making it as an artist. Fortunately his plans didn't fall through for him. Some of these homeless people without a place to stay for the holidays are with out heat and some without food. This is very depressing as you read the article.

The department of homeless services are going through multiple procedures to help the homeless in NYC. One way that they are doing is by creating surveys. The results have recorded thousands of un-sheltered people living on the streets. sub ways, & parks around the city. Determining  the amount of homeless people is quite difficult due to the fact of duplications & inaccuracies. In order to distinguish one homeless person from getting interviewed again, the volunteers who interviewed homeless people for the survey are asked to give examples of un usual appearances to prevent inaccuracies  or duplications.
