Trump Shift Away From 'Housing First' Alarms Homeless Programs

The Trump administration is moving federal homelessness policy away from the "Housing First" model, which prioritizes permanent subsidized housing before other issues. Providers nationwide are scrambling to adapt to new rules favoring "Treatment First" and short-term transitional housing to keep federal funding. Projects have been scrapped in Corbin, Kentucky, and Louisville nonprofits may convert permanent apartments to temporary ones.
