Breaking up homeless encampments doesn’t fix the fact that these people have nowhere to live! What a cruel policy.
Why not emminent domain overpriced apartment buildings owned by the Saudis, Chinese, and Russians, and give the apartments away the homeless. Problem solved.
Yeah, so simple!
Those apartments world devolve into a human trafficking, crime ridden drug overdose havens in no time. Mental health support for them is needed first.
You get them in a stable living arrangement first, and then that makes mental health support exponentially easier.
Housing first policies work everywhere they’re tried.
Please link the studies to change my mind. Otherwise, apologies for sounding rude, but you are full of bullshit lies.
Lol you don’t get to be rude if you apologize first.
Yes I can; it’s called hypocrisy.
Why not both, simultaneously?
maybe California shouldn’t have a 3-5 YEAR waitlist for section 8/Housing Choice Vouchers housing?
maybe they should force all those empty retail/commercial/industrial/residential properties to be put to use or forced to hand over to the state.
maybe the church of scientology shouldnt be allowed to own thousands of buildings in california with no stated purposed or published staff?
maybe California shouldn’t have a 3-5 YEAR waitlist for section 8/Housing Choice Vouchers housing?
I live in a deep red state and it’s that wait, or more, here, and I believe it’s a lottery system, at that.
