4/4 If we want to truly reduce homelessness in our cities, we have to first understand the problem—addiction, mental illness, and the collapse of our social institutions that once held people together.
I'm hoping @seattletimes, @timeshomeless, and @ViannaDavila will consider doing a similar analysis of the raw survey data in King County. It cuts against the entire narrative of the political and nonprofit class which has maintained that it's "all about housing."
