As long as they are forced to keep it clean. That is the biggest issue. Even in the low income housing, people feel free throwing garbage all over and have no respect for their neighborhood.
What are the rules and regulations for Tampa Hope a friend of mine is on there waiting list,,, just want to know a little about it can someone tell me me please?????,
Some people ARE trash. If Fentanyl and Xylazine is killing the homeless by the thousands, my question is: What can I do to get more of it on the streets?
Yeah, you cant even walk around Norman Oklahoma, carrying around a big purse or one nice looking handbag or briefcase without being demoted to underclass !
This is amazing, I love the initiative and I hope people on the streets take this opportunity to help them selves. This should be done across all the states. People on the streets should not be seen as a problem, but should be seen as what they are, humans, just everyone else.
It sounds like social workers and other social programs are actively investing in this community, which is fantastic. It gives the residents a much better chance for improving their lives.
Thank you, I just knew there was a simple, easy and affordable way to get a start. For a new,fresh life ( for those that were homeless) and just needing a little help to get it back on track. Good Luck to all. I hope this is just a kick off to your new beginnings. New journey. New life! Bless all involved to make this possibility! 👍 🙏 😇 💙
This is a great place. I came the other day when I was living on the street and it is very safe and secure. They make sure they check you so you do not bring anything and the staff and everybody that work there. They are great people I can’t say nothing bad about them .❤❤❤🎉🎉😊😊
Is call squatters sometime they don’t wanna live they rather stay their because is free an east way out but when you do get a place you end up right back to being homeless only because of drugs and rather not take full responsibility to managed your money and pay bills not to many are going to make it
Happy news!! I love that there are no drugs and alcohol allowed. That will help the community strive to remain a safe place for tenants. Those granted a cottage most likely meet certain criteria. The tenants look forward to transitioning and elevating. ❤❤
I understand both your viewpoint and the viewpoint of the sober residents of this community, but usually the first best thing to helping someone on the streets get clean is finding them a secure place to live. It would be great if a kind of halfway house community could be created for those who are still using, but want to kick their addictions.
This shows that humanity isn't completely doomed! I'm happy to see this. I've been homeless before and something like this would want a man or woman to progress and think more of themselves. If Alabama would get on board but you see who are governor is!!
I have designed many low cost tiny housing solutions and many free plans. Those commercial units are way expensive and you can build a unit from wood in a day. They can have solar for power and a place to cook if needed.
This was sounding good until they mentioned 4 month transitional objective. Who are you to place a time limit on when someone is ready to hop back on the hamster 🐹 wheel? Many will need much more time, like years! 😶
Secure housing is such a critical first step for homeless people to recover from addiction or mental illness. It is unreasonable to expect anyone to get clean on the streets with so much ongoing trauma occurring there
The only way this can work, is if the occupants are capable of following rules, and actively doing things to better themselves. There's always been people going homeless, but they only got back on their feet if everything wasn't handed to them. Humans need a nudge in the right direction sometimes.
The video said no drugs or alcohol. Hopefully they are strict with those rules. Otherwise that place will become a flaming dump in no time. The addicts always find a way to ruin things for those who actually need and want help.
@charlotteab4606 not main reason main reason is rent being too high and wages being too low. Reason for no income is drugs and alcohol plus mental health
Unfortunately based upon my recent interactions with NOLA homeless, a good many wouldn't do this. But there were some who would and that matters.. their stories were heartbreaking. Would love to see this model applied elsewhere
God bless Catholic Charities and all their donors, volunteers, and employees. They are active here in Connecticut also. They are truly doing great things for people.
I think that's great as long as the people staying there agree to go into drug rehab or some type of therapy. If you listen to the homeless in San Francisco, they will tell you that just free everything is killing them.
That's is amazing..some people leaving like a dogs in the streets because the economic situations and others psychology factor's. Also they should build a main big center which can help them with psychology therapy and gives some kind of Vocational Rehabilitation, so they can learn a new things and be motivated to starting working in the future, feels productive and leave that life behind. There is so many jobs they can do without needing a diploma. Congratulations to the people who helps this human beings.🎉
I live that so much, the boxes are so, soo cute and it's such a heartwarming thing to build little communities like this one. I always love to see these videos. But I'd like to see, how the houses look now with furniture and everything else described in the video. 😊
its a start but until we follow more of the Finland system and provide long term housing with out the pressure of "rejoining society" its bound to fail, there is no support structure for long term mental illness or disabilities in the USA anymore. People say mental institutions are cruel and inhumane but is it more humane to allow those people to fend for themselves on the streets?
@@AFloridaSon finland is about the size of montana or new mexico so of course they have a smaller homeless population to begin with. That doesnt make their approach undoable here, it would just require repurposing the funds currently used. Of course that wont happen because too many people make money off of the homeless
This program is just wonderful. We treat stray dogs better than people. When we see stray dogs we pick them up, take them to the shelter, clean them up, feed them, get them medical treatment and try to get them adopted. Of course some don't want to go but they're not in the right frame of mind.
@@galewinds7696 Be nice. Hope you never encounter this situation. For your information I'm a republican-conservative but that doesn't mean we can't help people that have fallen because of drugs, unfortunate circumstances, mental illness or whatever reason. We already spend billions taking care of the homeless anyway we're just not spending the money in the right way. We give billions to Ukraine and the rest of the world. We need to take care of the people in the U.S.A. also.
This is wonderful this is what I was waiting to hear you have done writing band has the excellent job doing everything they need the other aspect is maybe keeping their haircut and cleaning them up could be another big help if someone is willing to work with cleaning them up to the point with social workers can step in and maybe get somebody who can cut her hair who's willing to help out this would make the difference and they would also feel good about and maybe trying to get them in two jobs Training this could make the difference if someone gave them in the encouragement to keep going then being stuck in a rut and no one should have to be put down by the judgment of others because they're trying to make it life holds so much more than someone who degrades others that's been in their shoes giving them the self-confidence that they can do anything they set their mind to is what they need right now a lot of them's been through hell and backI really appreciate everything you're doing to help the homeless because it's just more than most people would do I do know when doc was around he helped all homeless in the past and got them up on their feet by giving them the self-confidence they can work anywhere he talked to people to make sure that they could get job training and find out if there's people who can work this would make a change and the difference to getting them to feel good about herself again thank you your services are really appreciate
I called Tampa hope so many times. Nobody answers the phone or returns your voice messages. They should make it more accessible to fill out a application, & be put on a waiting list, instead of ignoring people.
They should make this in Orlando and everywhere where they’re lots of homeless people Tampa ain’t the only state that has homeless people here in Orlando and everywhere in every state l pray they start this project in Orlando 😊
They using prop 13 and want land values High. CA is actually the most regressive state against poor people. They give money to poor to vote against self interest long term though.
This is really the first step I've seen from any city that makes sense to assist our own people with shelter.. hopefully Catholic charities or whoever will continue to help our citizens to get off the street..in the meantime most of the countries middle class are just trying to survive in this expensive world...THANK YOU CATHOLIC CHARITIES AND ALL INVOLVED ❤ MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT
Not everyone wants to leave the streets but there needs to be a way out for people that do, hopefully this is it.
Amen. Well said.
As long as they are forced to keep it clean. That is the biggest issue. Even in the low income housing, people feel free throwing garbage all over and have no respect for their neighborhood.
What are the rules and regulations for Tampa Hope a friend of mine is on there waiting list,,, just want to know a little about it can someone tell me me please?????,
This is amazing! I'm so happy for the people this is going to help. I wish this was done all over the country, especially in places like California.
Let's just hope, its contagious. More states want to help and see the change from this. Hope and have faith and wait to see. 🙏
Something like that is much needed in Charleston wv
This is what humans needs to do, help each other! Help people in need ! Instead of treating people like trash.
Some people ARE trash.
If Fentanyl and Xylazine is killing the homeless by the thousands, my question is:
What can I do to get more of it on the streets?
Yeah, you cant even walk around Norman Oklahoma, carrying around a big purse or one nice looking handbag or briefcase without being demoted to underclass !
Wonderful idea! What a blessing. Praying for all involved.❤
More of these kinds of stories, please. This outside-the-box thinking is what we need more of!
This is awesome every state should do this.
California has done this for years . How's it working ? just go to downtown LA and see for yourself , please !!!
this initiative is fantastic!
Very nice. I like the way that they call them “cottage homes” which sounds so much better than toolshed
Pretty cool think more cities need this
I really hope this works for people I'm glad to see something being done. Hopefully we will see this where I live soon would be amazing
God bless! This is going to save lives.
This is super cool. Way to go Tampa.
This is amazing, I love the initiative and I hope people on the streets take this opportunity to help them selves. This should be done across all the states. People on the streets should not be seen as a problem, but should be seen as what they are, humans, just everyone else.
And I rather see my tax money going towards this type of project than going towards weapons
Tax money doesn’t go towards weapons
It sounds like social workers and other social programs are actively investing in this community, which is fantastic. It gives the residents a much better chance for improving their lives.
@@erinb58 how do you think the government do the budgets and distribute the money towards different projects?
@@erinb58 Federal tax money doesn’t go towards weapons ? Is this a type-o or are you being ironic ?

Mr. Biden is a big patriot 🇺🇸
@@sarbantz you are either a Troll or have a huge lack of grey matter to make a comment like this.
Why cant we have more of these, they arnt much to build❤
Finanally a step in the right direction. Thank you so MUCH, 💕🤗🙏Such a good name Hope Village💕

That is a fabulous idea 👏👏👏❤❤❤
They should required for them to work, detox and counseling.
this will be ALL that ANYBODY can afford after 2 more years of brandon.!!!!!!!!
Actually the way Florida is right now I might as well move into a shack myself 😂
I AGREE, TWO MORE YEARS OF BOE JIDEN AND WE'LL ALL BE MOVING IN THERE.😜😵💫🤪
@boni_traxton9436 not a bad idea
I have designed many low cost tiny housing solutions and many free plans. Those commercial units are way expensive and you can build a unit from wood in a day. They can have solar for power and a place to cook if needed.
This is really needed in Orlando. Good Job Tampa!
It’s really needed in every large city !! But let Tampa be the example ! Great job ! Another reason why I love the Tampa area !!!
Excellent!! Way to go Sunshine State!❤️🤍💙
These permanent houses that they're talking about are actually off grid homes Futuro House and Ecocapsel homes.
I'm impressed with the church helping people. In a country so wealthy, this shouldn't even be an issue to be solved.
First Off, get rid of the credit system...
Second, lower the dam RENT...
Thrid pay a livable wage...
Fourth all above...
Absolutely 💯
IMHO, the place will be trashed in 6 months...
🤣🤣

They can't leave drug and alcohol without a rehab..is the main reason they are homeless..creating a rehab is the best way to help them

Hell with anyother news Yall MORE OF THIS NEWS PLEASE
Great idea!!
tampa is becoming sanfran
not quite...sf is defintely not comparable to what they are providing in Tampa..
Not even close. San Fran is actually cleaner. It’s becoming Portland.
The strict drug and alcohol restrictions need to go along with mandatory cleaning requirements.
I think that's great as long as the people staying there agree to go into drug rehab or some type of therapy. If you listen to the homeless in San Francisco, they will tell you that just free everything is killing them.
💯
Ill take it Rent is to expensive
What is the 1st step in getting this type of set-up in North Carolina, Mecklenburg County?
I imagine talking with your elected officials & churches maybe
How can we help. We need this here in Indy.
God Bless 🙏
Love it
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you 🙏🏻

Nice to see the Bishop of the town help the community nice work Guys!
At least you're doing something more than most churches do in the Western world thank you
This seems nice, but, Where does a person shower, use the potty, & eat?
They said in the video there’s a common area with washers n dryers and showers and where your fed !

Sounds good on paper. But, Finland has around 4,000 homeless. America has over a half a million homeless, and that number is increasing.

Sounds like a great idea to help those who just need a helping hand to get back on their feet. I pray the area will be free from hurricanes 🙏
Hope it works! The no drugs or alcohol policy was a very good idea, and will aide in keeping the place safe and clean.

God bless you Father. I was wrong I thought theCatholic church was heartless.
That’s great! Some will take a hand up! Wish everyone would.
Omg we need this here in Arizona so badly.
The inside looks like a prison cell....
I'MMA CRY THIS IS AWESOME yall have Know idea! GOD SPEED YALL
God bless you people for your help.
They are all God 's children.
We need this here
Hope this goes well there is a real problem and the federal government just got plenty money to give to others care for USA 🇺🇸 first please
I'm sure They R Very Grateful for U All
Very nice ! 👍💯
They don’t have enough money for a more permanent housing, even with a job.
*I GOT THAT GOOD ROK , COME FIND ME THERE*
I'm sure Cynthia will love seeing this screen shot when it reaches her phone soon 😂
omg that's awesome.
Housing first is a must. I pray that they can find something similar for the addicts that want help.
What happens after the allotted time?
Good job community people
God Bless All
I called Tampa hope so many times. Nobody answers the phone or returns your voice messages. They should make it more accessible to fill out a application, & be put on a waiting list, instead of ignoring people.
They should have this in Atlanta,GA Im homeless and need a shelter like this.
Way2go Catholic charities glad to see someone's doing something about the ongoing problem in the USA
They should make this in Orlando and everywhere where they’re lots of homeless people Tampa ain’t the only state that has homeless people here in Orlando and everywhere in every state l pray they start this project in Orlando 😊
Tampa is a city. Not a state
Hope they keep it clean and sanitize
watching from Grenada in the west indies. keep them videos coming
If you build it, they will come. If you pay them, they will come quickly.
Does Tampa really want to become San Francisco?
I need information on this for my son on SSDI unable to find anywhere that he can afford. Link please.
It’s not permanent housing
I Love this!!!❤
Thanks to our God for el blessings to our brothers and sisters 🙏
They need to do this in CALIFORNIA. We have so many homeless everywhere you look, in every city. It’s sad. This seems like a solution.
Follow the money in California. They are paying 250k per unit which houses one person. Wth??? When u could have these built for maybe 10k.
They using prop 13 and want land values High. CA is actually the most regressive state against poor people.
They give money to poor to vote against self interest long term though.
And this is how L.A.'s problem started.
How long do they stay?
She said four months

Maybe California can do something similar for the homeless in that State.
