One proposal partially served as a critique of the state's Housing First approach to ending the crisis
County officials have advanced a proposal to house a large group of people who are living on local streets while being treated for substance abuse disorders and approved a sweeping review of all contracts and programs related to homelessness. Although differing opinions about how to best tackle the crisis were on display Tuesday, the board of supervisors were nonetheless unanimous when they approved both measures.
The proposal also served as an implicit critique of California's Housing First policy, which prioritizes getting people under a roof before any addiction issues are tackled. 'It should not be our only approach to homelessness,' Desmond said earlier in the meeting.
