[00:02.56]2006
[00:06.22]The homeless make up a growing percentage
[00:08.51]of America's population.
[00:10.53](1)Indeed homelessness has reached such proportions
[00:13.65]that local governments can't possibly (2)cope.
[00:16.93]To help homeless people (3)toward independence,
[00:19.85]the federal government must support job training programs,
[00:23.68](4)raise the minimum wage,
[00:25.60]and fund more low-cost housing.
[00:28.12](5)Not everyone agrees on the number of Americans
[00:30.88]who are homeless.
[00:32.44]Estimates (6)range anywhere from 600,000 to 3 million.
[00:37.30](7)Although the figure may vary,
[00:38.86]analysts do agree on another matter:
[00:42.03]that the number of the homeless is (8)increasing.
[00:45.22]One of the federal government’s studies
[00:47.33](9)predicts that the number of the homeless
[00:49.35]will reach nearly 19 million
[00:51.08]by the end of this decade.

[00:53.54]Finding ways to (10)assist this growing homeless population
[00:56.67]has become increasingly difficult.
[00:59.29](11)Even when homeless individuals manage to
[01:01.51]find a (12)shelter that will give them three meals a day
[01:04.53]and a place to sleep at night,
[01:06.95]a good number still spend the bulk of
[01:09.07]each day (13)wandering the street.
[01:11.19]Part of  the problem is that many homeless adults
[01:14.32]are addicted 1 to alcohol or drugs.
[01:17.04]And a significant number of the homeless
[01:19.73]have serious mental disorders 2.
[01:22.15]Many others, (14)while not addicted or mentally ill,
[01:25.18]simply lack the everyday (15)survival skills
[01:27.80]needed to turn their lives (16)around.
[01:30.42]Boston Globe reporter Chris Reidy
[01:32.64]notes that the situation will improve only
[01:35.15]when there are (17)comprehensive programs
[01:37.58]that address the many needs of the homeless.
[01:40.40](18)As Edward Zlotkowski,
[01:42.01]director of community service at Bentley College
[01:44.74]in Massachusetts, (19)puts it,
[01:46.75]"There has to be (20)coordination of programs.
[01:49.27]What’s needed is a package deal."
