When it comes to solving the homelessness crisis, should we focus most on long term fixes or the immediate crisis on our streets? It’s a question that is riling up cities throughout California, including San Jose, which is right now facing a funding dilemma over whether to spend scarce resources on affordable housing or new shelter space.
Admittedly, it is a somewhat wonky policy debate, but at the same time, it touches on the central question of the homelessness crisis: that is, how we can help people get out of homelessness, and stay out for good. On this edition of KCBS In Depth, we look for answers.
