Abstract

Homelessness is not just a social ill. It also costs the state huge sums of money. A new digital tool helps track the cost of homelessness when coupled with drug addiction across a number of public services. Michela Tinelli argues that the results clearly make the case for early intervention and investment in addiction recovery of the homeless.
