San Diego’s Connections Homeless Center
Rocky Road for
Homeless Center
San Diego’s Connections Housing center
was supposed to be a big step toward moving homeless people from the streets to
permanent homes. But, as we report in a new story, the center’s first year hasn’t been a simple
success story.
There are snags in its budgeting, a
one-stop-shop for the homeless is still coming together, and different rules at
the property have created some unusual disparities.
Homelessness in the immediate
neighborhood is down by 70 percent, and the people who have ended up in its 73
permanent apartments have tended to stay there.
