Behind The Numbers
This is a great way to visually compare homeless demographic groups to one another, but it raises two important questions: 1) why are these people homeless, and 2) how can homelessness be addressed? There are many answers to each question of course. Perhaps getting some of the numbers behind the numbers above would help us address homelessness, an issue I fear is only going to worsen under the Bush economy.

Graphic comment
I agree with Decomprose-this is a great simple visual diagram and very informational.
My question is why are the mentally disabled homeless represented as upside down? I'm not sure that was necessary!

Al Gore Jr. ..are you listening?
Perhaps your Assistant Publisher of GOOD can relate to the needs of the homeless by using his money for the public "GOOD" vs. using these same monies to fund his own illegal drug prescription drug habit. What a poor example from one of your publishers! Other than it being illegal, I can relate to the marijuana use as I'm sure it's for "medicinal purposes" but the illegal prescription drug buys/use...apparently the public/gov't supported "rehab" in 2003 didn't work for Jr. This is a kin to good 'ol Rushy, Mr.Always Right, Limbough!
Al Jr....CLEAN UP YOUR OWN PERSONAL ACT and start being responsible to the continuents you claim to support!
