"Project HOME - Facts on Homelessness." Project HOME - Facts on Homelessness. Project HOME, n.d. Web. 28 Jan. 2014. <http://projecthome.org/advocacy/facts.php>.

This site helped me by defining the idea of a homeless person. I for one didn’t know that someone living with family, and depend on them fully, can be considered homeless. I also weren’t away of some of the many causes of homelessness like lack of health care, drugs, etc. This site gives many statistics produced by the most recent U.S Census. The stats were enlightening and new to me, and I think will go great in my end of the year presentation.

"Homelessness." Directory of Aging Resources. Philadelphia Committee to End Homelessness, n.d. Web. 29 Jan. 2014. <http://www.pcacares.org/OrganizationDetail.aspx?organization=Philadelphia Committee to End Homelessness (PCEH)>.

This site helped me by raising my awareness of the methods being currently used to counteract homelessness. The Philadelphia Committee to End Homelessness, starting in 2005, has been working since to fight one of the worst problems in the city. This site also helped me by giving me the contact information for people who are experts in my capstone’s field. This gives me the opportunity to become more equipped in this particular field of expertise.

"Advanced Search." JustGive.org. I Do Donation, n.d. Web. 29 Jan. 2014. <https://www.justgive.org/donations/help-homeless.jsp>.

This site is unlike the rest, but still gives very beneficial information. It’s unlike the rest because this site gives actual advice on what you can do to help out anyone who is considered homeless. It gives a list of 35 critical things that could be easily accessed and given to homeless people. Many people think that only money can be given to them, and though that is very important, there’s more that can be done. That’s why this site is so important.

4."Long Periods of Uncertainty." What Is It like to Be Homeless? Shelter, n.d. Web. 30 Jan. 2014. <http://england.shelter.org.uk/campaigns/why_we_campaign/tackling_homelessness/what_is_homelessness_like>.

This site gives you a more broadened perspective of homelessness. INstead of the obvious lack of food, water, and money, it lists other detriments that come with it. Lack of education for homeless children, the fear of being robbed and harassed, and many other things. Many people think that “street people” have a narrow list of problems, which isn’t the case. Also, people think that homeless children aren’t common, when in fact they are a large percentage of the population.

Zavaros, Matthew D. "Feelings Homeless People Go Through." WebAddict Designs Blog. WebAddict, 16 July 2011. Web. 30 Jan. 2014. <http://matthewzavoras.wordpress.com/2011/07/16/feelings-homeless-people-go-through/>.

This site is beneficial because it gives a personal point of view from someone who was in a rough homeless position. The other sites display statistics and biased materials when giving perspective of the situation. The writer of the article is someone who spent most of his young adult life on the streets. He talks about his adventures, which gives the reader better insight. This source can prove reliable when we run our experiment.

Prois, Jessica. "Philadelphia Homeless Feeding Ban Officially Blocked By Judge." . N.p., 14 Aug 2012. Web. 30 Jan 2014. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/13/philadelphia-homeless-feeding-ban_n_1773438.html

This source speaks on the ban that the city of Philadelphia tried to have emplaced. The judge blocked this ban even though the Mayor had some reasons that could possibly make a good case for this to have happened. The mayor talks about how the homeless need other things than just food and this is why he tried to put the food ban into action.
