End Abuse at Homeless Shelters

It's time to re-train some of the old staffers at Homeless Shelter

Most people that have stay at shelters already know of some inappropiate behavior that occurs at shelter by some of the staff. It is usually the minority, but it set the tone for the rest of the shelter. It amaze me how in this era, the new millenium, there are abuses at some Homeless Shelter in the Boston area. Without provocation, there exist abuses at homeless people at the only place they can rely on for a bed. No less to say there are many wonderful places that the Homeless can relly on. Places like the Women's Lunch set the tone as a good place for Homeless Woman to drop by. Where do Homeless people go after being misstreated and verbally abuse in the shelter? Where can they run away to? I would like to repeat that it is only a small percentage of staffing that engage in this abusing and innappropiate behavior. One might not have a home, but still have his/her dignity.   --Rose
