Ben Carson: “the cost to society long term, six and seven figures per child, and it makes absolutely no sense.”

Housing First works very well because it actually costs more money to keep somebody on the street than it does to take them off the street.

I would very much welcome having a long-overdue conversation with members of this committee about how we can provide meaningful, dignified assistance to those we serve.

I can't emphasize strongly enough to all appropriations members that we have to do this before a disaster occurs. We have to.

We want people to actually be able to move out of assisted housing, and to realize the potential that God gave to each individual.
