How to help the homeless? Give them a home.

Moira Lawler General Manager of Lifewise, an Auckland based organisation which gives support to the isolated and marginalised says there are massive accommodation gaps that are not being met - and there is no plan for them; and Dr Sam Tsemberis, the founder of Pathways to Housing in the U.S. His model - which is achieving great success in a number of U.S cities - is simple....give the homeless homes, no questions asked and provide them with counselling. Dr Tsemberis is here ahead of the Impact Conference on housing, in Wellington tomorrow.
