How one state almost solved America’s homelessness problem

Abstract

The United States is facing one of the worst housing crises in its history. The problem has turned homelessness into an epidemic. Not a single state has an adequate supply of affordable homes for renters in the lowest income bracket. On any given night, almost 600,000 Americans are unhoused. The good news is that a solution to this crisis exists.

One state — Utah — shows that reframing one’s understanding of the problem and providing homes without conditions is safer, more effective and cheaper than the alternative.
