Homelessness

Homelessness is unacceptable, period. Sheltered or unsheltered, no human being deserves to be forced to live on the streets or in a vehicle. Mike supports the use of existing resources and proven strategies that have been largely ignored to end homelessness. He will do this by immediately helping individuals get off the streets and by prioritizing mental health, detox, and addiction services, particularly through the CARES Court system. Equally important in solving homelessness is aggressively streamlining the building process to create housing, particularly in urban infill sites and by adaptively reusing existing but under-occupied buildings.
