"The usual stereotype of homelessness involves the disenfranchised navigating the mean streets of urban areas but a new picture is rising of those in rural areas struggling with the same issue. At its last meeting of 2009, the Calaveras County Board of Supervisors learned that the state and federal governments are finally starting to look at and address homelessness in areas outside cities. Beetle Barbour, housing resources director of the Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency, told supervisors that a change is coming in the system." (CalaverasEnterprise.com, January 6, 2010)
