With more affordable housing, resources for addiction, accessible mental health services, early childhood interventions? Excellent idea!

I think it’s deeper than that. I think it’s about realigning community culture. Changing the norms, mores/morals, and values to shun criminal culture. or none of those other things work if no one wants to use them since it’s all voluntary….
