WIS News 10 - Columbia, South Carolina | City officials in Gainesville want to give local homeless one-way bus tickets
Member Center:
(Gainesville, FL-AP) April 2, 2007 - The homeless in Gainesville, Florida are going to get one-way tickets out of town.
Gainesville officials and a local shelter have launched a program in hopes of reuniting homeless people with their families or friends elsewhere in Florida or in other parts of the country.
Once someone elsewhere has agreed to help the homeless resident, the caseworker will buy a bus ticket, take the participant to the station and make sure he or she gets on the bus.
Gainesville's mayor says it's a way to reconnect people to the places and people that have the resources to get them back on their feet.
