The non-snarked answer is how do we reform the social safety net to keep families together? Several states are finding that it is cheaper and easier to put homeless people in vacant housing and offer job and drug treatment than it is to put them in shelters. Can we do the same for families? I'm an atheist, but I am all for church based and community centered antipoverty programs. Running the programs as close to the community and neighborhoods as possible is what I would like to see happen.
