I don’t think it’s a question of money. The main constraints are: 1) No one wants homeless shelters, supportive housing, mental institutions, day program facilities, etc. in their neighborhoods. 2) Well meaning but naive people constrain the solution space. For example, there’s been a movement to reduce arrests for various things. An unintended consequence or that is that homeless people that victimize other homeless people (including theft and assault) are less frequently arrested and so homeless shelters become less attractive to the homeless.
