I’d like to see that.There are astronomical costs associated with leaving homeless people in the streets. From cleanup, to policing, to court costs, to jailing (which is housing them)...and that's on top of ineffective program costs that keep recycling methods that aren't working.
In every place that has done Hosing First, its proven to be cheaper.
If you provide housing for 2500 people for a year and include meals, you’re looking at $100,000,000 minimum. I’d like to see something that proves leaving those people without services is more expensive.
