Can Subsidized Housing Address Homelessness in New England?
The study explores how subsidized housing can combat rising homelessness in New England, focusing on sheltered families and the impact of LIHTC incentives on affordable housing projects. It discusses the federal definitions and measurement methods of homelessness and proposes potential reasons for the increase in family homelessness in the region. The role of area-specific shelter policies, such as Massachusetts' right to shelter law, is also analyzed.
