Violence and homelessness in cities require a multifaceted approach that prioritizes public health, community safety, and social services. Cities should implement coordinated strategies, including public health interventions, strategic policing plans, community safety teams, and innovative programs to support the unhoused. These efforts should leverage diverse funding sources, such as American Rescue Plan dollars, and draw from successful case studies that demonstrate the value of collaboration, targeted investments, and data-driven solutions to address these interconnected issues effectively.
