Tiny Homes
The City of St. Louis is building a number of Tiny homes in the downtown west area for homeless people. These homes are just a few hundred square feet and provide basic amenities. I do not think such a program is a good idea. Research and practice show that permanent supportive housing works best to eliminate homelessness. Furthermore,concentrating a number of homeless people together is not a good idea. Many homeless people do not want to remain in housing. Written by Paul Dribin
