Food. Shelter. Gender ideology.
“The key components to effective emergency shelter include culturally appropriate, gender-affirming, and specific, low-barrier access and housing-focused services aimed at rapid exits back to permanent housing,” according to the plan released by the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness.
The plan calls on federal agencies to work with cities to provide “guidance, training, and technical assistance” on “inclusive models” such as “gender-affirming care” and harm reduction strategies for drug use. The plan encourages partnerships between housing, disability and health care groups to “create better resources for providers to connect program participants to culturally appropriate and gender-affirming housing resources.”

The U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness consists of 19 federal agencies and counts racial equity, decriminalization and inclusion as some of its core values.
The Biden administration has access to billions of dollars to fight homelessness. The American Rescue Plan signed in 2021 provided $5 billion for emergency housing vouchers and another $5 billion for a homelessness program.
There were 580,466 homeless people in 2020 — the largest mark since 2013, according to endhomelssness.org.
