LA's Homelessness Visibility Has Declined Slightly and the Structural Causes Have Not Changed

The Inside Safe Programme Has Moved People From Street Encampments Into Motels and the Street Is Visibly Different and the Structural Deficit Is Unchanged

LOS ANGELES, CA

The visible street encampments in several Los Angeles neighborhoods have decreased in density following the Inside Safe programme's motel placements, producing the specific change in the visible homelessness picture that the programme's design intended: the encampment is cleared, the residents are in motel rooms, and the street is visibly different from its encampment configuration. The structural causes of homelessness -- the housing shortage, the mental health system capacity, the addiction treatment access, the income insufficiency -- are unchanged by the motel placements.

The visibility reduction is a genuine improvement in the conditions experienced by the people who were in the encampments and are now in motel rooms. It is not a solution to the structural deficit. Both things are true. The programme achieves what it is designed to achieve. What it is designed to achieve is a portion of what the problem requires. More at prat.uk.
