That's the dang truth, housing won't fix homelessness, but community will. We have lost the sense of community in this country. Even in the Great State of Texas.
“Housing will never solve homeless, but community will.” This single line is so powerful and what America, and the rest of the world for that matter, needs to focus on.
Absolutely. Hopefully as more people become aware of how it continues to grow and flourish, more people and communities will be willing to invest seed money.
Needs to come to Hawaii ..more homeless per capita by far in the US and the Government here treats them like vermin and program anyone not homeless to hate them ..its disgusting
It's so depressing to see people just wish this could be done. You know that doesn't count, right? Everyone wants "them" to do this, to run for office, etc. Well who is "they"? All of us! I work in the food kitchen every weekend. My Mom died when I was 15 so I started working after school. My "gap year" has now been two if I want to help my Dad Dave his house - he's not lazy, he works hard. We have medical bills. My point is that you don't have to have a pile of money to help. Give your time, use social media to connect needs with people who can fill them. You can probably think of way more than I can. Just do it.
He is so correct. I would say home HOMELESSNESS IS CAUSED BY CATASTROFIC LOSS OF FAMILY. And there are many reasons that happens. You don't have to be a drug addict. My husband shot himself. We lost everything and our rock that day.
You know those people in Austin Texas are disciples of Jesus. How wonderful the people who put that together for homeless people. Finally something right to help those wonderful people. God Bless them all !!
I don't. That's the way the kitchen is set up, and I always eat with the people I serve. Then I ask them their stories. Watch the power of asking someone their story, and actually listening. Turn off your phone, really listen.
Just saw the ad run before a video to discover your organization! God Bless you guys for doing this! I'm thankful to have disability and housing assistance, but know so many people out there with a disability and can't work full time to support themselves and the housing lists everywhere stay closed. Only hope they have is family and if they don't have that they couch surf until they end up homeless. So grateful for your work and hope it will expand in DFW area where I live. I don't have much money, but would love to volunteer and help in any way I can.
Wonderful! Good job Austin. You need the support of the community but also the local gov't. If your local leaders won't cooperate you cannot move forward and there are local gov'ts that will stand in your way even if the idea is the right idea. What you have done in Austin is truly great!
Statistics show that almost all homeless people choose to be homeless because of their drug addictions , For whatever reasons they have turned to drugs and have chosen to live on the streets. So in order to help homeless people you have to treat their addiction also if they have one. That's a must. This looks like an amazing community and hopefully the ones with addictions are getting the treatments that they need.
this is the most beautiful thing I've seen in years. Just seeing this is a blessing to me. Bless you all each and every one. Thanks for brightening my day
This truly is a movement and I see these popping up all over the country by private citizens like this man. He basically created a village inside a city that is more than self-sufficient. Amazing what one person can achieve!

Omg this man is God sent. This just made me cry. I went thru homelessness. I had a young son. It was so devastating. I cried alot. I had no money no car. No hope. My family didn't even want to help. I know this feeling. I lost all my sons pictures from birth. Everything. All we had.
Freethink warms the cockles of my heart everytime. Changing the world for the better for the right reasons. Showing there are good ppl out there. Giving ppl a chance to do better and be better through the milk of human kindness. What a breath of fresh air. Love, hugs and admiration from Australia
Does Mr. Graham share his development plans with other non profits to duplicate in other cities? Has ML&F been called upon by others for help in starting up non profits to do the same work in other states? I am really interested in learning how they navigated the bureaucracies to do what he has done, in my area.
⁉️It sounds great but the forced labor & making a big buck off extremely vulnerable & traumatized people especially in the current American Corporate Dystopia really worries me.💔🇺🇲💔🇺🇲🇺🇲💔💔💔

This project is helping fight homelessness more effective than any government program I have ever heard of.

I want to do this in Pa. So many people living in their cars.
How's it going? Did you start yet?
“Housing will never solve homeless, but community will.” This single line is so powerful and what America, and the rest of the world for that matter, needs to focus on.
I would love to see more communities like this across the world. It takes a large seed of money to start it but it can change so many lives
I agree.. ive wanted this in the area i live.

Property taxes going higher are leaving alot of texans homeless as well.

It's sad that the channel doesn't post these kinds of news anymore.
Something I wonder: is private feudalism any better than state feudalism?
It is when you're the Junior Executive Vice President.
This is so awesome. Who filmed this? Freethink?
Amazing! Waheguru Ji Mehar Kare 🙏
How do you keep drug dealers out of there?
The only decent town in Texas.
