Homelessness in NYC

        Homelessness is a growing concern as more and more people are falling into the poverty level and are becoming a statistic. These three web sources will prove that homelessness is a big topic for New Yorkers and should not be left in the shadows of discussion.

         According to coalition for the homeless they are stating that "homelessness in NYC has reached its highest levels since the great depression." This website is excellent for showing statistics and historical data about homelessness. They seem to be a legit website with trustable information and reliable sources. There rich facts are essential for the research paper.
       
         NYC Department of Homeless Services is another good website that helps to exploit the growing problem and also its shows what we can do to fix this issue as well as help the people who are homeless. This website helps to actually reach out to people in need as opposed to the first source that just gives statistics about homelessness. It even has a section where you can help the homeless as well.

        In this third web page we have an editorial which gives some opinion about the dilemma in our city including some sources in the article. This is a news article so it has factual information as well and gives concrete facts about our cities goals and plans for combatting homelessness.
