I think the answer is in the article. They don't just provide shelters, which have many issues on their own, they put the homeless in apartments with tenant agreements, dragging them back into society. In most of Europe there are enough shelters for the homeless, but many people avoid them, I'm guessing violence, theft and strict rules is what turns them away. For example, whenever there's a cold snap, the Romanian police is canvasing all the homeless locations and bringing everyone in shelters...I guess they prefer dealing with homeless people rather than dead bodies.
