“we do outreach，we do prevention，we do permanent housing，and we do transitional housing.we have an education program with all sorts of different things to move people to end their homelessness.” she said，“our out of poverty program is not just about money.it’s about you could be spiritually poor…you could be relationship poor，you could be educationally poor.so it is focusing on how you get out of this poverty that has brought you to being homeless.the program tries to teach the shelter residents self-reliance and work values，and includes courses on planning and personal responsibility.”
