        That's awful. There has to be a social worker who can get this man into a government funded program to help him. @caringkindnyc

        Every homeless person has a story. They’re humans and should he treated as such.

        Homelessness in the West is a really big issue, especially when mental health seems to be a prevalent issue. At least society is starting to recognise that these days, but we still have a long way to go.

        It’s important to hear stories like this. We need to open our minds and hearts to those living on the streets. It’s an unfathomable day to day reality
