Several major U.S. cities, including Salt Lake City, Houston and San Diego, have documented major reductions in community costs associated with homelessness as a result of Housing First implementations. The Department of Housing and Urban Development defines the chronic homelessness as an individual with a disabling condition who has been continuously experiencing homelessness for a year or more or has had at least four episodes of homelessness in the past three years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Media Contact:<\/strong><br \/>\nLana Graybeal<br \/>\nCity of Boise<br \/>\n(208) 972-8509<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:lgraybeal@cityofboise.org\">lgraybeal@cityofboise.org<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]BOISE \u2013 Community leaders and partners from across the valley gathered virtually today to celebrate the grand opening of Valor Pointe, a 27-unit apartment complex offering health care, mental health counseling and substance use treatment to our community\u2019s veterans experiencing chronic homelessness.
