    What is needed is an overhaul of DHS and HRA. More Section 8 Vouchers need to be issued to those who are eligible for them. This is why there is failure of a system that is suppose to help those who need the help.

    Ceo Renee Mitchell of Breaking The Cycle Drop Corp said you need wrap around service all on site so you can address the root cause and push them toward self sufficient to make better choices. Each case is different. Bring back cont. Care and bring back inpatient psychiatric beds for unshelter homless with serious mental illness.
