foreign [Music] my partner and I are Community Action officers in Mesa some of the trends we're seeing is just a lot of homeless people trying to find housing the homeless are usually traveling by Light Rail Metro bus if a lot of times our homeless have mental health issues they might be using illicit substances our goal is to get them off of those and into housing get them a job and medical care if that's what they need help is available if you're not ready for it today maybe you're going to be ready for tomorrow and it's still going to be there each day is a new day that you can decide that today is the day you want to take that next step whether it's finding housing finding a job finding a place to sleep finding you know a Respite Center somewhere to just hang out for the day to keep cool stay out of the heat all of these resources are available and you can get them through both Valley Metro and Mesa PD we actually um ran into two females who had just moved here from Indiana tried to escape some abuse they were staying here in Mesa in their vehicle we contacted them they had a job interview set up but all they needed is the resources for housing to be able to shower to be able for hygiene we were able to get him into housing a hotel room for multiple days and they were able to go to their interview we brought them shoes clothing and they were able to get food before their interview so they actually got the job and we followed up with them it was great [Music]
