I like the idea of also having the job placement and mental health services. I had served on a non-profit Mental Health Association board for many years, and am well aware of the high percentage of the homeless that are dealing with mental health issues, as well as physical health issues.
Providing a solution for the immediate need (shelter) is best when coupled with a longer term solution to remove people that situation.

I totally agree with what you are saying. People can cope better if they know they have a decent place to live. They are more receptive to solutions.
