I honestly don’t know how big the problem is with people getting out of jail and not having a place to go. Some jails let people go with $200.00 and these people may have been in jail for year don’t have a drivers license, or social security card so finding a job the first day is not likely.
Without a place to go they start to look scruffy by the second day, by the fourth day they need clean clothes and a bath. Now they are homeless and unless somebody invests in them they can not become productive members of our society.
The federal government is trying to address the problem with “The Second Chance Act of 2007″ I do not know what States are doing.
