[quote=Anonymous]So this plan does not actually address the scope of homelessness in DC. Keep the DC general site and build a nice, multi purpose center. It is near metro and a school bus could take all the kids to school. Counseling and job placement and computer lab centralized. These shelters are meant to be a transition, not permanent living. I'm super confused by all the concern for location and amenities. These are not mixed income housing which is where the real money should go..isn't the plan for people to move out and up? Ludicrous waste and so far not backed up by any research anyone has shown. I mean, look at the youth facilities scattered through the city. Mismanaged and youth are constantly fleeing -and they are in 'nice neighborhoods'. Can't see it makes a difference. The focus here should be on management and efficiency. I hate seeing $ that could actually help people being flushed down the toilet.[/quote]
