Many policy discussions around homelessness lack the perspective of unhoused people. @HPRI_LA's research fills this gap in a low-cost way by sending questions directly to unhoused Angelenos' phones. @USCPriceCSI @GaryDeanPainter @sabamwine @_Hetrick ow.ly/cgzy50LSYkH

I don’t think anyone is surprised at this outcome. The governor was able to make the political point that collectively every jurisdiction needs a plan to end homelessness and jurisdictions can use these one-time funds on evidenced-based interventions 1/3
Two weeks ago, @GavinNewsom withheld a $1 billion homelessness grant over unambitious goals. But local governments didn’t have much of an incentive to shoot for the stars because of the way the governor and Legislature wrote the grant. I explain: calmatters.org/housing/homel…
