Coming Soon

i would like to start a link within your wiki in that i have been involved in homelessness for over 4 years. i am now working on setting up a local site to help homeless peersons with emphasis on veterans, in that i fall into this category. i now have access to some useful information and a set of questions regarding housing, basic services ect that a large group of homeless persons here in Indianapolis, IN have asked me to compile. What i'd like to do is pose some questions that these people encounter every day in their homeless condition. One of the major problems encounter is actual access to information at the TIMES these people can actually get to it. Most homeless services in this town have such rigid and fixed hours due to financial and personell restraints.
