Many of the cases are elderly or disabled poor , or persons who are temporarily disabled by an accident or disease. Governmental and public care givers do not meet all of the needs in a crisis. Often there is only meager assistance from those sources, or none at all in some cases. For instance when a family has lost everything in a home fire, assistance from the Red Cross or other agencies only covers the barest of essentials. Two or three weeks after the incident, the family is pretty much on their own.
Some persons still feel devastated.
