"Zuerst kommt die Wohnung, dann der Rest: "Housing First" hilft Menschen unkompliziert beim Neuanfang. Ein Berliner Projekt nimmt Wohnungslose in den Blick, die oft übersehen werden: Frauen mit Kindern."

Trump regime's move to send the homeless et al to concentration camps is right out of the Nazi playbook.
Journalists who maintain "neutrality" in the face of fascism are helping to normalize this. They'll regret their inaction when they're among the imprisoned (or worse).
The visibility of homeless people on street corners, begging for food and housing, is an obvious sign that our economy is failing. I've seen a large increase in the number of people begging at intersections in my suburbs far outside of Chicago, steadily increasing since Covid lockdowns ended.
Dictators need to hide the homeless in order to hide their economic failures. (Also, without an address, the homeless can't vote, making them easier targets.)
Republicans have always preferred the more expensive "prisons and insane asylums" response to #homelessness , rather than the less-expensive and proven #HousingFirst solutions.
Much of this current White House statement on the subject tries to forestall and negate #HousingFirst discussions by demonizing the homeless and portraying them all as either insane or addicts, rather than just signs of an economy that is failing to meet the basic needs of millions of its citizens.
