Other Reports

A Place for All Report

HSH published a report on December 30, 2022, to directly respond to the requirements of the A Place for All legislation. This ordinance required a report on what it would cost to eliminate unsheltered homelessness in San Francisco within three years. The report is not the Citywide Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness, which will be published in early 2023. We updated the report in March 2023.
