Michael PorterReposting something I saw earlier on Mastodon (and probably boosted) - A open tab that I got around to reading today. Isn’t it amazing, that when we take a positive approach that helps people instead of punishing them, things get better?
"In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. The reason: The country applies the “Housing First” concept. Those affected by homelessness receive a small apartment and counselling – without any preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected thus make their way back into a stable life. And: All this is cheaper than accepting homelessness.”
