Desiree Maciel, San Jose
Driving around town I see tents set up in the bushes. There are clothes hanging around the trees and trash surrounding the area. At almost every stoplight there is someone that is homeless asking for money. Having lived in San Jose my whole life, I can say I have never seen this much homelessness.
Just on my street alone, there are several homes for sale that have been empty for months. We are obviously in need of change to end this crisis.
