FINNISH HOMELESSNESS SOLVED?

The Finnish say that they have solved 50% of the homeless situation in Finland. The difference between Finland and the UK, is that Finland put 25% of housing into the project. The Housing Minister decided on 25%. Whereas in the UK, its only 10% and in fewer cases 15%. 

Once housed with in-house amenities, (as one would anticipate in Finland, the amenities are excellent, they even have saunas and specific sound proofed areas for musicians) they receive treatment support in-house and the support workers speak to the residents every day once housed. 

Finnish cities fund it in partnership with the Federal government. Notice that all but one of the people that were housed in this documentary were Finnish.
