‘Counterintuitive and dangerous’: advocates warn Trump administration policies will increase homelessness

The article discusses concerns raised by advocates about the Trump administration's policies, which they believe will increase homelessness in the United States. The cuts to the flagship federal program that funds housing and other services for the homeless are described as "chaotic and disruptive." The article includes the personal testimony of Shawn Pleasants, a 58-year-old who experienced homelessness in Los Angeles, who says the changes evoke the fear and uncertainty he felt when he lost his home. Advocates warn that the new policies are "counterintuitive and dangerous" and will negatively impact those experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
