Do you think increasing funding for shelters will truly help, or will it lead to other challenges?

Yes if they are placed in areas were they are needed.

I think that if we put more resources into homeless shelters and try to make them actually good places to stay, it'll help.

It can help but lots of homeless people don’t want the help so they will still be out there

It would help, most shelters are pretty upsetting and they can definitely improve upon it even cheaply they don’t have to dump billions into the shelters to make them tolerable.

it will lead to people taking advantage of the shelter because people don't take them things seriously anymore

Lead to other challenges teachers need more money not to give illegal immigrants.

Raising funds would let homeless people rely on the government instead of getting a job and supporting themselves.

yea I think we should fund a little, its hard for homeless people to get back onto their feet, especially with house prices and all that being so high right now so it'll be hard for them to get back without no money or a start. So yes I think we should fund a little

No. We need to make this private. Focus on helping our elderly first, veterans second, disabled next. Homelessness should be handled with education from private charities.

It would help get more people off of the streets long enough for them to pull themselves together and maybe get a job.

I think it would help, but would need to be improved beyond funding

It will help, but we also need to partner the funding with more social programs

It might lead to other financial challenges, but if handled properly can help a lot of people.

I believe that I will make things easier for the homeless.

I think homeless shelters should be outlawed and instead replaced with a government funded program that provides housing, food, and other basic amenities, and in return they can serve the government with tasks provided to them

Yes but many people won't go to them because of what some of the staff might do

it would help because a lot of homeless people need shelter.

Yes it will help because a lot of homeless shelters struggle because of money.

I do not feel like it could create any real change in the homeless community. They need help getting their life back together not a place to sleep while they continue to fall into bad habits.

Increasing funding for shelters must be accompanied by mental health services, substance abuse treatment, & job training.

it will help but going back to the university debt accountability having free tuition will decrease homelessness by providing more educational opportunities for everyone.

I think it will lead to other challenges because homeless shelters could get overcrowded and they may not have enough supplies

It would decrease funding for other needed social or economic programs, but also make it easier for homeless people to get help.

Yes I think it will truly decrease the number of Homeless people with more funding for shelters

increase funding, the states have the highest homelessness rate out of the 33 countries considered 'most developed'

I think the funding for shelters should go into getting these people actual homes and apartments

We force them to have shelter, if they wish not to work to get thereself's off the ground, then we shall force them to work in labor camps.

It might help the homeless not be homeless and have better lives

I think it may help a little bit but it could cause more people to be homeless

It will help if these shelters do not have a long list of mandates such as sobriety requirements, which all serve to draw out and deny homes to people.

I think it will help get people on their feet, possibly getting jobs which could help boost our economy and decrease our unemployment percentage. I believe the benefits would outweigh any possible challenges.

More funding for more shelters would incredibly help, as less people would have to sleep on the streets.

It will truly help people who have nowhere else to go.

Mental health and drugs are primary causes of healthcare. Lack of housing seems secondary.

Yes it will help but it will most likely increase taxes

It will lead to more homelessness and other challanges

I think it will help a little but it may cause more people to no work

No it will lead to less drive for people to work.

It would help but we have better things to pay for.

It will truly help and give homeless people places to live temporarily and get food while they get back on their feet.
