There is a homeless problem in Troy.
So far in July, 70 homeless men, women, and children have been turned away from services. They aren’t asking for much — a simple meal and a warm place to stay for the night.
While some may disagree, the homeless situation isn't getting any better. Individuals and families are routinely being turned away from much-needed help because of a lack of resources.
While there are many organizations and agencies in place to assist our citizens, more is needed.
The number shouldn't be 70 — it should be zero.
