Trump Says ‘Housing First’ Failed the Homeless. Here’s What the Evidence Says.

Jason DeParle @nytimes.com explains evidence for ending homelessness by providing help people need to afford rent & flexible services to meet other needs. Homeless service providers know how to help people find housing when rental assistance is available. Progress made for veterans is the roadmap.

Thanks for raising this here. I hope we can spread the word further.

🧵It’s official-@HUDgov is slashing overall permanent housing funds by roughly 2/3 in its main #homelessness solutions program–the Continuum of Care(CoC). If Congress doesn’t undo this harmful change, over 170K formerly unhoused people will lose housing assistance next year.

Our Leaders Have Slashed HUD Before | Opinion The federal civil servants at HUD have a job to do, and it's a vital one for our nation and our communities. We need to let them do their jobs.

Powerful @newsweek.com piece from @annymoliva.bsky.social @naehomelessness.bsky.social on the importance of HUD staff & funding.

The Admin. & many in Congress are also taking other actions that threaten families' economic security & could increase #homelessness.

Cuts to HUD are cuts to homes In this time of uncertainty, my thoughts turn to all that’s at stake for Minnesotans and others.

HUD's work profoundly affects people’s lives: HUD backs loans for homes, apartments, and nursing homes, helps seniors and people with disabilities on fixed incomes stay in their homes, finances new affordable buildings, helps prevent discrimination, and more.

Opinion | I’m 16. On Nov. 6 the Girls Cried, and the Boys Played Minecraft. On the day after the election, it seemed boys and girls woke to a new reality.

“While we were gasping for a breath, it seemed they were breathing freely.” Nicely said Naomi. I feel it too.
