Here is the writing prompt

Everyone agrees we need to do something to address the problem of the unhoused (homeless) population in the United States. But, a common problem is that nobody wants temporary shelters or permanent housing solutions close to their own homes or “in their backyards.” The term for this phenomenon is “NIMBY-ism” (“Not In My Backyard”-ism).

Write a 500- to 750-word essay in which you engage and analyze material from the texts below to discuss how NIMBY-ism makes the current homeless epidemic difficult to address. Assume your audience has not read these texts, but is familiar with the topic of NIMBYism and homelessness.

Please be sure to write your essay on a word document or notepad in the event of a browser refresh so you do not lose what you have written. Then you can copy and paste your essay into the box below when you have completed it.
