SF Mayor Daniel Lurie announces new 'Breaking the Cycle' plan to address homelessness crisis
Briefly

San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie has unveiled his 'Breaking the Cycle' initiative aimed at transforming the city's strategy towards homelessness. This plan seeks to effectively connect individuals experiencing homelessness with necessary services while preventing others from becoming unhoused. Key features include improving public space safety, managing taxpayer resources, launching enhanced street outreach within 100 days, and adding 1,500 shelter beds within six months. Lurie also aims to utilize state and federal funding to expand health and supportive services over the next year, focusing on facilitating economic stability for affected individuals.
"The goal of the framework is to more effectively get people off the street and connected to services while preventing more people from becoming unhoused."
"In the first 100 days, the plan includes launching a new model for street outreach teams... reforming policies and services that help people move through the system."
