Federal and local authorities across the U.S. are taking varied approaches to street homelessness: Washington, D.C. is clearing encampments and offering shelter or jail, Dallas reports an end to downtown homelessness, and Sacramento has opened Powell’s Landing to help people transition to permanent housing.

Other developments include a 78-year-old woman living in her car in Florida highlighting senior homelessness, a settlement in Oregon protecting disabled residents, creative housing startups in Phoenix, a Columbus ordinance update, and remediation at a Santa Fe shelter after a bed bug infestation.
