I worked at a large homeless shelter for several years. A guest would get placed in a rental (often a room) and soon return. Loneliness and lack of support. It is so essential to provide services and opportunities for community in housing for the formerly unhoused. It is unfortunate that the drug using community can offer a sense of belonging as can shelters, when alternatives don’t.

This is a really long article but worth reading to the end. The care coordination workers are the heroes. Terribly overworked and underpaid, just like they are at the agency where I work
