Tallying chronic homelessness The article, written in February of 2007, states that the rise and influx of the homeless population will all but increase as time passes. “Hundreds of single men and women and families are homeless in Rutherford County; dozens of them are chronically homeless and rest their heads at night on makeshift cardboard beds and in tents,” stated Erin Edgemon of The Murfreesboro Post. “It is a never-ending problem,” Christine Huddleston, who has operated the Room in the Inn Shelter for more than 20 years said, “You have to face reality; there has been homelessness all my life, and there will always be homelessness.” The impact of this article states the ever-growing problem that Murfreesboro will face in the future, especially within these difficult times. “Tallying chronic homelessness.” Edgemon, Erin The Murfreesboro Post. 4 February, 2007 18 February, 2009
