HUD overview of homelessness, in nice clear English

Wow, this is CRAZY! the federal government has only been involved in homelessness since 1983?

Hmmm, HUD money seems like it's mostly aimed towards providing housing or shelter, rather than services. That complicates things.
Shelter plus care seems like our best hope so far http://www.hud.gov/offices/cpd/homeless/programs/splusc/
title V says we can have surplus federal buildings for our program:

or maybe SHP would be better, it includes funding for services

I love HUD's website. Why aren't other governmental websites this easy to use?

Oh, HHS has a lot of homeless programs too

and this page has links to all federal programs

OK, and I didn't realize this about the HUD COC program -- the state or locality has to provide the continuum of services to recieve money -- but HUD will only pay for shelter or housing. stupid.
