Provide Essential Homelessness Prevention for Families (10/09)

This nation can ill afford to watch more families fall into homelessness. With homeless families at a post-Great Depression high, everything possible should be done to ease this dire condition.

Congress is making budget decisions for 2010. One item considered is the Housing Voucher Program, aka Section 8. This program makes housing affordable for millions of low-income families. Cuts to this program would be devastating.
