Imagine living in a condo on the first floor and being greeted by the smell of piss every morning when you go to the balcony to get some air

I don't live in one you tell me. Posterd are telling me all the major cities are liberal.

how should I know. i dont live in america. this is why im asking you. you seem to know the differences since you mentioned liberal cities. this means you know there's a difference and they aren't the same.

So why are you in American business, respectfully? Have you addressed the homeless issue in your region?

It will not- it should be piloted as public private partnerships in smaller places with the goal to eventually
Dispose of non profits and subsume them into public health and housing agencies. Move much faster when results aren’t happening.

The field is too disparate to be effective as a federal program but “help” needs to be a carrot-stick program for beneficiaries as well as agencies that receive millions to address the problem. If the np can’t prove they’re effective and NOT just “feel-good” stories with fundraising, providing services, revoke their status.

For families/individuals, not just funding them permanently but not leaving them stranded after a year or so either. For those with mental health or substance issues, require them to get treatment to discontinue using-or zero services, remove children from home, they get reshuffled to bottom of priority for eligibility. I have a bunch of general sketches but no, we shouldn’t be expected to continue funneling dollars into a very broken and very fractured system.

Also force churches to provide homeless assistance services. Many do, in terms of food banks and such but formalize it.

Stopped reading at "Public Private Partnerships". Those have been and always will be just another way to funnel public money into private businesses' pockets. It's always the more expensive option and never very effective in providing for the public at all. It's just a way to make the rich richer.

How come y'all forget to congratulates the salesmen/women who sold those condos?

 

[hatealot]

Understood

The question is do people that have section 8 vouchers not have housing? It's my understanding that the waitlist for section 8 is very long. I dont know the answer to that question

My brother is homeless/ in and out and it took him almost 3 years to find housing.

It's like this in Atlanta, they're building luxury condos like across the street from some of the most brutal poverty i've ever seen

Tell me about it

I live in midtown, and I finally adjusted to homelessness. They live in my building on the low. Whole staircases , and they will break into the apartments if they feeling extra.
