Homelessness is expensive. Not only does it take its toll on people's lives, it is a huge financial burden on society. Tens of millions of dollars are spend each year in Travis County to feed, shelter, medically treat and imprison homeless people. As we move more of these people into housing and employment - and as we help them to become more independent and productive - we will spend far less in emergency services and they will contribute positively to their community and the local economy.
