A revolution of values. Housing alone is not enough. Written by someone more elegant than I, but when taken as a whole, a piece describing the need for my Transition Centers. It doesn’t do any good to take the homeless out of their tent and put ‘em in a house if you don’t concurrently take care of any medical or mental problems and provide them with employable skills. That way, they can support themselves, allowing them to hang onto the house you put them in. Any efforts that don’t include all of those features are doomed to failure. Don’t believe me? Look at all the half-assed, piecemeal programs in this country, the billions of dollars spent on those programs, and then look at the homeless population – it’s going up, not down.
