Should homeless programs funded by the taxpayers of the city of Los Angeles be audited for their effectiveness?
Of course they should be. Any outlay of tens of millions of dollars of public monies that continue to show results that are questionable at best should be audited.
Just after she took office, and it was shown that a year after the $67 million program known as Inside Safe had moved just 255 homeless people indoors, Bass herself said that she was “not satisfied with those numbers.” Of course she wasn’t. When there are about 46,000 people who live on the L.A. streets, no civic leader would be satisfied with those numbers.
“Which provider is producing results out there?” Carter asked, the L.A. Times reports. “We have no benchmark, and we have no accountability at this point. It’s just as simple as that.”
