Welcome! This site is a means to not only find out more information on the social problem of homelessness, but also to find
out ways in which you can get involved and make a difference. At the heart of Grand Rapids, about 65% of the people live
at an income level of $15,000 or less. People are often prone to think of homelessness as more of an international problem,
but forget that it is also in our own backyard.
Below, you will find a couple links that will help provide you with further information. First, there is The Facts which
is general information on homelessness in Grand Rapids to familiarize you with it. Second, there is a link which will show
you ways in which you can get involved. There are many organizations in Grand Rapids that minister to the homeless and are
always looking for more volunteers. I hope that this website not only makes you more sensitive to the rising issue of homelessness,
but more importantly, that it prompts you to want to do something about it! Thank you for visiting!
