SCANDAL in Schorndorf: Successful project against homelessness about to end!

A deeply shocking scenario is unfolding in Schorndorf, where the last hope for hundreds of homeless people is about to end! Shockingly, the Erlacher Höhe Housing Security Unit will close its doors at the end of August 2025, marking the final end of a remarkable project that will take place in four years135 householdscould save people from the abyss of homelessness. Stuttgart News report that the reasons for this catastrophic closure can be found in a combination of a lack of follow-up financing and tight budgets in the city and district.

This tragic turn of events comes at a time when the need for such preventive measures is more urgent than ever! The Erlacher Höhe has provided unprecedented help in its cooperation with local courts, social services, housing associations, lawyers and advice centers. But now this valuable network is collapsing as the system fails to provide the right resources!

A harrowing downward spiral

Board member Wolfgang Sartorius urgently warns of the catastrophic consequences of this decision: “The consequential costs of homelessness are astronomically higher than the costs for prevention!” He emphasizes that the loss of a roof over one's head can trigger not only economic but also psychological and social downward spirals. Stuttgart News clearly show that this closure does not only reflect Schorndorf, but a nationwide trend in which urgently needed prevention projects are being scaled back for financial reasons, while acute crises are increasing inexorably.

The drama of this situation cannot be emphasized enough! The closure of the department is not just an administrative act - it is a devastating step backwards in social support that will have a profound impact on many citizens. A city that does not live up to its responsibilities is on the brink of a humanitarian disaster!

A similar fate, but in the football world

In the world of football, which is often equally dramatic, one could point to the career of Carlo Ancelotti. The Italian coach has experienced ups and downs that are hard to believe. From his impressive debut in Serie B with Reggiana, where he was immediately promoted, to his glory days at Real Madrid, where he finally won the Champions League four times in a record time, Ancelotti has always proven that even the greatest successes are often followed by unforeseen setbacks! Wikipedia highlights how at each of his stops he faced challenges that would have made many coaches give up.

Whether Ancelotti can now take over the Brazilian national team to bring a breath of fresh air into the football world, while the signs point to a storm in Schorndorf, shows that the complexity of human fate certainly demands no less than a master of his craft!
