Homelessness
~many members of the homeless population have to combat barriers such as limited transportation and reduced access to educational and training program

-the difficulties of job seeking as a homeless person can be almost insurmountable barriers to employment.

-Mental or physical illnesses also play vital roles in the employment participation of individuals or those at risk for becoming homeless.

-the lack of access to technology serves as a handicap for the homeless searching for work. In this job market, some knowledge of computers and technology is essential for every field

~As bad as it is for the 44% of homeless people who have jobs and can't escape homelessness, climbing out of homelessness is virtually impossible for those without a job.

~For those with limited skills or experience, opportunities for jobs that pay a living wage are very limited.
