Urging The City And County Of Honolulu's Crisis Outreach Response And Engagement Program To Provide Regular Care And Services To Individuals Experiencing Homelessness In The Central Oahu, North Shore, Leeward, And Windward Regions Of Oahu On A Regular Rotating Schedule.
Impact
The resolution specifically highlights the existing efforts of the Crisis Outreach Response and Engagement Program, established in October 2021, which has so far focused on Honolulu's urban core. However, as the program has begun expanding its outreach, there remains a pressing concern that despite these initiatives, the number of homeless individuals and families on the island has not seen significant improvement. By urging a more widespread implementation of care services, the resolution seeks to enhance the reach and efficacy of the existing programs, which could lead to a better addressing of homelessness across the island.
Summary
Senate Resolution 96 urges the City and County of Honolulu's Crisis Outreach Response and Engagement Program to provide regular care and services to individuals experiencing homelessness throughout Central Oahu, North Shore, Leeward, and Windward regions on a rotating schedule. The resolution acknowledges the complex nature of homelessness as a multifaceted issue that requires comprehensive planning and collaboration across various sectors, including state, county, business, and community organizations. It emphasizes the importance of a coordinated response to effectively address the needs of the unsheltered population on Oahu.
Contention
While the resolution does not propose new laws or mandate actions, it raises awareness about the ongoing homelessness crisis in Oahu and the need for adaptive strategies in community services. The call for a rotating schedule for outreach services may encounter differing opinions regarding resource allocation and logistical feasibility, especially in a context where agencies are already working under tight budgets and capacity constraints. Additionally, there may be concerns regarding the adequacy of mental health support and follow-up services provided to the homeless population, which are crucial for long-term stability and integration into the community.
