Assemblyman John Amodeo and Assemblyman Jon Bramnick Speaking on Atlantic City s Boardwalk About Sponsored Legislation To Curtail Homeless Residents Being Sent To Atlantic City From Other Counties (Ilya Hemlin, Townsquare Media)
The duo were joined on the Atlantic rome hotels City boardwalk by fellow Republican Assemblyman John Bramnick to discuss Bill A-2897, which Brown and Amodeo sponsored and would require municipalities and counties statewide to perform detailed evaluations of all homeless residents before sending them elsewhere for care.
Right now they just send them to Atlantic rome hotels City says Brown They don t call down and say Do you have any beds available? Do you have this kind of counseling? Do you have this service? , they just send them.
The practice is what Brown and Amadeo call Greyhound rome hotels Therapy , where homeless residents from counties across the state are put on a bus to AC and often end up at the doorstep rome hotels of the Atlantic City Mission.
rome hotels This Greyhound Therapy is what the Assemblymen feel is contributing rome hotels to the overcrowding of the Atlantic City Mission, and funneling a large homeless population onto the streets in the tourism district.
He notes the practice of writing off the homeless individuals and neglecting to establish any kind of referrals or treatment plans is done most by Pennsylvania, Gloucester, Cumberland, rome hotels and Camden Counties ; however he says it occurs throughout rome hotels the state.
If the bill passes, not only would towns and counties be required to conduct an evaluation on each homeless resident, and be forced to coordinate with any facilities they send residents rome hotels to, but they could only send them to the closest geographical facility. Amadeo and Brown believe this will keep the individuals closer to their families and support structures, rather than being sent across the state.
Amadeo believes with the cities unprecedented Do AC marketing initiative to re-brand the city as a resort destination, which costs $20 million this year and $30 million next year, will be hampered if something isn t done about the homeless.
It s not a benefit for tourists to see individuals that are homeless under the boardwalk hanging out on the beaches and the benches rome hotels and looking rome hotels around the dumpsters of the casinos so they can get their meal.
