These units will be supervised housing where the homeless people will have caseworkers and social workers monitoring them in the building and making sure they access mental health/addiction services and regular medical services.
it's a start, but definately won't even put a dent in the massive shortage of mental health housing.
Now here's the point all the Trump supporters will now enter this thread and tell the mentally ill to get a job or burn in hell and all that other disgusting degenerate stuff you read on this forum

Well we have to start somewhere.
California is about to lay down 2 billion on statewide mental health permanent housing and related services including SSI.

It would if there was some way that welfare/social services migration could be halted. It's not fair that NY has to take in the rest of the country's vulnerable populations because other places are too cheap to want to deal with them.

Proof?
NY can send people who don't have NYS residency back home. They actually have historically already done this and still do sometimes.
Helping these individuals should be done through private charity. I would get rid of all welfare programs such as this.
These people can't be helped through private charity.
They were often institutionalized in mental hospitals long term.
They are incapable of maintaining households basically, and do not have the minds of functioning adults. If they are not given proper institutional care they are left out in the streets to not just ROT, but to violently attack people. We've all seen in the news where these unstable individuals randomly stab people or pushed them in front of trains.
They need medication and supervised housing. There's no way around this.

You do realize that neither the current administration nor city council will be around in fifteen or even another six years from now (assuming they win re-election); thus this "plan" highly depends upon future mayors and council members. In other words I shouldn't start picking out drapery and furniture just yet.
