SF United in Crisis

Doctors release a decentralized plan to house the city’s homeless in hotels

As medical professionals and essential homeless service providers, we believe that all those who cannot self-isolate should be moved to hotel rooms, and we endorse the call for 14,000 hotel rooms for unhoused individuals and those in congregate settings, including 5,000 rooms for vulnerable individuals and families who should be moved out of residential hotels.

These measures are critical to protect the most vulnerable populations of homeless individuals.
