Housing First

Housing First is an approach to addressing homelessness that prioritizes providing stable, permanent housing to individuals and families before offering additional support services. The idea is that once people have a secure place to live, they can better focus on improving other aspects of their lives, such as health, employment, and social connections. This model has been shown to be effective in reducing homelessness and improving overall well-being, as it treats housing as a basic human right rather than a reward for improving one's life circumstances.
