Is homelessness being reduced in Jacksonville

Depending on who you talk to, yes on a number of levels.

Jacksonville still has massive numbers of people that remain invisible to the counts, on points from local to international levels. Rewording of regulations show one person being identified as homeless by Florida State terms while that same person is NOT considered homeless by Federal HUD housing regulations.

That same person, along with her 11 children, are also NOT considered homeless by some other Florida Government regulations...if that makes sense.

Maybe local government officials could use some uptraining in linear motion. It'd give them a reason to take another field trip or something.
