This doesn't seem to affect outcomes, so it doesn't seem like a huge issue to me.
From the linked report [1], 31% of the Black homeless population is sheltered and only 24% of the non-Black homeless population is sheltered. I.e. despite receiving lower scores, Black people are more likely to be sheltered.
Within the narrow confines of shelter, equity would seem to demand the opposite of what they're going for.
