    Please don’t ignore the woman at the end who said there was a huge homeless problem before Helene. What judgmental people don’t realize is that any of us could be one incident away from having no shelter.

      @@bettyjones113 Most who are from these counties (multiples spread far and wide) and providing aide in one way or another have all said housing was a problem before Helene. The homeless in Asheville, a city of at least 100,000, has been mentioned more than once and I gather that they has a homeless population more like bigger cities; for a whole host of reasons. Moving further out from Asheville it sounds like there were a lot of multigenerational households, extended family households, and roommate households because there weren't enough affordable rentals. By definition, if someone is couch surfing, even for an extended time at one location, they are considered homeless. Some multigenerationsl and extended family households are considered homeless as well; i dont know the nuances of this definition though.

    Leave the kids alone. Their parents are doing the best they can under the circumstance. 1000's of homes were destroyed. These families are doing what they can to survive and put their lives back together with limited and difficult to obtain government assistance. It will take time for volunteer support and citizen donations to get these families situated in better living conditions, but for now it is what it is.

There is a huge amount of space in Asheville Mall that could be turned into long-term housing. Here in Black Mountain and Swannanoa, I see multiple empty houses just sitting, falling apart that could be renovated and converted. What about renting rooms at the Black Mountain conference centers during their slow months while housing is being found rather than people living in cars? There is too much bureaucracy and not enough creative flexibility in government problem-solving.

There is plenty of money and there are plenty of resources available to help every family affected by Hurricane Helene. People will give. Give them names and addresses of reliable agencies and churches and groups who are already doing the work. It will take a long time to overcome this disaster.

    I feel bad for all the people seeking permanent housing, but here's the thing: It takes time to build permanent housing, and that building can't really even begin until the cleanup is complete. What's needed right now is temporary housing. There were 126,000 homes damaged or destroyed in western NC. That's a lot of people; probably not all of them are in need of temporary housing but even if half of them are, it's a lot of people. It's going to take time, and it has nothing to do with government malfeasance. In fact I've seen videos from another content creator who was leading a convoy of trucks all carrying FEMA temporary shelters into NC. This was at least 3 weeks ago. But imagine what it takes to get 10,000 or more of these moved in; that's something that just can't be accomplished in a few days.

      Are you referring to McKinney Vento rules, qualifications & protections? OR M/V funding? I can attest from experience that McKinney Vento funding is extremely limited. Plus what resources are offered or even available vary greatly from district to district/state to state. And now with such an influx of additional homeless children, resources will be even more limited.

    Everyone is working their ass off to help.
    Do what you can. Take what FEMA is offering. Do the paperwork. It’s a job. But, if you want to stay. It’s all you can do is get those resources. Red Cross etc.
    It’s not going to be instant. You have to think what can you do for your family now not wait around. Take the money you are getting and move with family to a place that has work and stay together.

They have the monies and resources and authority to do so. The time is late, the needs are real. This has nothing to do with the children. Housing is the next problem to be addressed, waive the stiff necked regs, think outside the box. Winter is closing in. The time to act is NOW.
