Aren't studies like this part of how to solve homelessness, though? Like this method helps around 16%, then other methods can be used to help people who need more resources.

Part of the frustration with dealing with homelessness is that it's so difficult to help the most visibly homeless, so people think the programs aren't working or are lining people's pockets.

Sorry if I wasn't clearer but yes this is going to address a part of the problem but what many think of when we think of homeless people are the chronically unhoused and those people's issues are largely mental issues rather than purely financial. This program addresses recent homelessness.
