I believe less than 10 years

According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness (I found it by Google (cost to society of homeless)), getting single homeless adults into supportive housing (with a social worker included to urge residents to seek health care during normal business hours so they don't end up in the Emergency Room) costs less than either neglecting them altogether or keeping them in homeless shelters. They estimate the savings at between $2000 and $2500 a year. Between keeping them out of trouble with the law trying to make an illegal living since they can;t make a legal living and substituting outpatient care for emergency room care, it is possible to save enough to pay for single room occupancy in supportive housing with something left over. Most single chronically homeless adults have a disability, whether substance abuse, mental illness,or a chronic physical illness.

All well and good but it still won't keep them from turning this new housing into a ghetto and destroying it in a short time, so then just what is the overall long term cost to the taxpayer? This short term solution that the article spouts is just another rip-off of tax dollars!
