“Offering resources” is a phrase you’ll see often in relation to homelessness, but it’s sounds much easier than it seems.
For example, getting a resource means finding and securing transportation. A resource may also not be available unless a benchmark is met, such as applying for food stamps .Hassan Walker learned about these hurdles as he tried signing up low-income residents for ACP or Lifeline, which are government benefit programs providing households with free smartphones and coverage.
Taito teamed up with Walker, who recently opened up “One Stop Resource” at The Outlet Collection Seattle in Auburn. That includes Charles, who was applying for a free cell phone at One Stop Resource. He lives in an Oxford House, a self-supported recovery home.
