In most cases and seen in my participation in shelters, undeserving and deserving homeless are truly recognizable. The difference in recognizable in the sense that they have already been placed into this groups and get treated in different ways from both the staff and volunteers.\u00a0 There are so many structural problems but as mentioned in class how do we tackle these reoccurring problems? Up to bottom or from bottom up? There were also things such as abuse and use. Where is it that we draw the line? Something that was brought up in our class discussion was, what if we were the staff? What would we do to change the system? It is a very difficult question because as much as we want to change there are things such<br \/>\nas findings that will be affected if there is a change in the way this<br \/>\nshelters\/programs run. Lyon-Callo talks about that on page 166, the way in<br \/>\nwhich these volunteers and staffs are afraid of the change. As well as in page<br \/>\n115 where he mentions how volunteer feel worthless. It\u2019s the concept that you<br \/>\nare there \u2018helping\u2019 the homeless by putting food in boxes, separating clothes,<br \/>\ntalking to them and yet you cannot provide a home or a stable life for them.<br \/>\nHow do we as a society tackle the structural issues?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once again in class Vincent Lyon-Callos book:\u201d Inequality, Poverty, And Neoliberal Governance: Activist Ethnography in the Homeless Sheltering Industry\u201d has struck me.
