Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake proposed expanding shelter services and more policing. Here's what housing advocates think of her plan.
Reactions from homeless service providers and housing advocates were mixed.
Ultimately, homelessness is a systemic issue, not an individual issue as Lake’s plan implies, Carr said. Lake’s plan also claims homelessness service providers, while well-intentioned, “enable and increase” the number of people living on the streets. But like Schwabenlender, Zwick noted it would likely be challenging to secure the resources and statewide political will necessary to set Lake’s plan in motion. And more information is needed about how certain aspects of Lake’s plan will be developed, funded and carried out, such as getting people mental health or substance use treatment, she said.Experts said Lake’s rhetoric isn’t unique to Arizona or even to homelessness.
