Existing funding should be better targeted and more effective
@B2PN3XB6 days6D
Homeless shelters and services should be well funded and operated through the government, rather than private charities.
@B2KWFG62wks2W
no but not cutting the funding, focus on how to resolve homelessness like in Finland and UAE.
@B2FTPK3 3wks3W
Yes, but also put more focus on reducing homelessness with affordable housing.
@B2DVYCF3wks3W
Upstream causes of homelessness should be addressed i.e. Unaffordability, Addiction/Mental Illness, FDV. Access to essential services, including safe sleeping places and healthcare should be guaranteed.
@B22G8ZN2mos2MO
Idc where the funding comes from, government, charities, etc. As long as there’s funding for these services.
@9ZSVZT22mos2MO
Yes, But they should not only increase the funding of this but other areas too to alleviate stress on these shelters and services.
@9ZL34PS3mos3MO
Yes, but they should keep a register of people and give priority to people who are actually trying to improve their situation.
