On a recent day, Jennifer Coulter went into her friend’s garage and blared @The Rolling Stones’ “Gimme Shelter,” singing along and tilting her head skyward: "The floods is threatening / My very life today / Gimme, gimme shelter / Or I’m gonna fade away.” @samuelhodgson captured this moment while on #nytassigment in San Benito County, California. Jennifer, 48, has been homeless for more than 8 years and struggles with PTSD after being raped at 18. San Benito County does not currently have a year-round homeless shelter, though between 2011 and 2015, its homeless population swelled from 193 to 651. But with $3 million from the Community Development Block Grant, the county is planning to convert an old machine shop into a 50-bed permanent shelter that will also feature a service center to help residents and others escape homelessness. The new shelter is slated to open this November. But this source of federal funding might not be around if President Trump gets his way. His full budget proposal, due Tuesday, will zero out the CDBG. Until the grant funding for the shelter comes through, Jennifer will continue spending her days living on the streets, occasionally taking refuge in a friend’s garage and in her music.
