My concern with it is how far away it is from amything. it’s an hour by bus to the nearest library (which a lot of unhoused/poor people rely on for various services) and a 30 minute ride to the closest groceries (Save A Lot). I don’t think it’s very close to any social services either.
I’m not fully against because more housing is good, but I wish it was a more holistic approach. Maybe they’ll include some on premise services tho.
…why are states making homeless camps? This time, in a former prison no less. Is this the build-up to something horrible?
This looks like a housing-first approach to resolving homelessness: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Housing_First
