Has the State of California ever considered institutionalizing the clients of U.R.M. that have a history of being dysfunctional and displays no effort in improving their circumstances, like getting a job, leaving the state of California traveling back to their home state, seeking mental health services, and/or drug rehabilitation services to keep the streets clean and reduce the criminal activities in the area of skid row?

I know that there are agencies in that area who offer employment services free of charge, it should be mandatory that each client who’s abled bodied seek employment services, or that each client be monitored and income should be assessed to enforce savings, through a local financial institution who would willingly assist U.R.M. with successfully opening accounts for each client who should save a percentage of their monthly income to prepare for independent living.

It’s a shame that the skid row area can’t be managed in a orderly fashion without crime and free from vagrant wonders who don’t want to change and improve their conditions.

I’m suggesting that U.R.M. organize a committee to create policies and enforce these policies on the clients that use the services at U.R.M., stricter policies produce results.

In addition, the issue of the Los Angeles Police Department cutting back on Law Enforcement in the skid Row area, I know that the crime rate is really high in the skid row area and that the enforcement of law and order is very much needed to ensure safety of the residence and people who work in this underprivileged area of Los Angeles County perhaps the residence and businesses can organize a neighborhood watch for ordinary citizens that reside and work in that area watch for criminal acts being committed and contact a law enforcement agency that will act immediately.

I send condolences to the U.R.M. and am willing to assist your agency in any way that I can to improve services for American citizens, please feel free to contact me at any time if extra help is needed.
