TheStreet-LevelSolution
A)WhenIwasgrowingupzoneofmyfather'sfavoritesayings(borrowedfromthehumoristWillRogers)was:“It

that,untilrecently,oursocietythoughtitunderstoodthenatureofhomelessness,butitdidn/t.

D)Butthatcanbemisleading,eventoexperts.WhenIaskedRosanneHaggerty,founderofCommonGround,
whichcurrentlyoperates2310unitsofsupportivehousing(with552moreunderconstruction),whathad
beenherbiggestsurpriseinthiswork,shereplied:"Fifteenyearsago,Iwouldnothavebelievedthatpeople

E)OneofthestartlingrealizationsthatIhadwhileresearchingthiscolumnisthatanybodycouldbecomelikea
