[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thinking about what homeless people will do after the temporary shelter would make too much sense. So no, they haven't thought of that. [/quote] What makes you think that? [/quote] The model itself doesn't seem to reflect best practices or much planning. You take at-risk people from one neighborhood, and dump them in another--often more expensive than where they were already struggling. You help them for a while. And then? Magically they are able to pay much higher rent in the new neighborhood? If not, they have to move elsewhere, meaning they and their families get uprooted twice in a short period.[/quote]
