“The folks that are experiencing homelessness are Californians, our neighbors”
“There's a lot of noise in California around who's experiencing homelessness and why,” Moore said, adding that the study pushes back against narratives that are dominating conversations right now.
Approximately one out of five people surveyed was institutionalized prior to homelessness. Certain minority groups, such as people who identify as black or indigenous, were overrepresented compared to the general population in the state. Moore was astonished when participants reported that they were only given an average of five days' notice that they would lose their housing. Such short notice “really complicates prevention efforts,” she said.
In order to develop solutions on a wide scale, Moore highlighted the need for policy coordination at the local, state and federal levels.
