Colleges are accepting single parent students who are homeless and/or living in shelters and encouraging them to take out student loans and grants to pay for college. Once in college, there are no family housing or vouchers available. This typically means that the single parent family will drop out of school, still homeless and with student loans to pay back ( and perhaps unable to gain a Pell Grant again). This practice places the students in a worse financial position than before they started school. Colleges also do not specifically track single parent families from admissions to graduation because the drop out rate will negatively skew the graduation “success” numbers. We urge Congress and the President to fund housing vouchers ( partial or full) for this vulnerable population who are making the right decision to complete their education and raise their family out of poverty and onto a successful path of self sustaining.

Anyone who has faced unemployment over the past couple of years has felt the anguish of dealing with the states Department of Workforce Solutions. Calls go unanswered or sit on hold for hours. Afterwards, unemployment benefits sometimes dont even go through. Eyewitness News 4 has received several questions from viewers regarding the departments lingering problems and took those questions directly to Secretary Ken Ortiz for answers. The Department of Workforce Solutions fully admits the unemployment insurance system has problems. It was never designed to handle the volume of people it has faced in this recession. Last year at this time we had about 13000 customers on unemployment. Now were nearing 50000. So if you do the math, its at least three times, said Ortiz. Ortiz says improvements have already been made. Debit cards are now used instead of checks so customers can get benefit funds quicker. The call centers hours have been extended from five to seven days a week. The department has also added 36 customer service representatives, bringing the total number to 64. Despite this, Eyewitness News 4 has continued to receive emails from viewers complaining of problems with the department, including getting no answer when calling. One viewer claims to have tried for six weeks without getting through to someone. I understand that [people are frustrated], and were very sensitive to their needs, said Ortiz. Ortiz says his department is essentially overhauling the system. Right …
