This model legislation offers practical, immediate steps to reduce unsheltered homelessness by funding outreach and short-term housing options; creating a pathway for sustainable services through Medicaid and supportive grants; and building long-term housing stability. Designed for bipartisan appeal, this approach prioritizes housing stability, cost-effectiveness, and proven strategies.
Adapt this model for your state and introduce legislation that provides constructive alternatives to street camping bans while addressing unsheltered homelessness.
This legislation funds outreach teams, short-term housing, and sustainable services — solutions that work for both people and budgets.
