Mayor Bass said the homelessness crisis should be treated like a "hurricane" after a report finds 10% increase in 2023. The same study found a 9% increase for the county.Los Angeles city and county leaders said they were disappointed with the results of the most recent homeless count released Thursday that showed a 9% year-over-year increase in homelessness in the county, and a 10% jump in the city. And, they are calling for more to be done to quickly address the crisis.

On Thursday, some action came with the mayor's talk. Her Inside Safe program began moving homeless at an encampment in South L.A. into housing, but moving people into permanent housing remains a challenge. "As sad as I am to see the increase, I think they pass the smell test in the sense that they align with what our eyes are seeing. We must address the crisis that we see everyday. That our children are talking about at the dinner table. Why are people suffering this way," said Kellum. "Economic forces continue to push people into homelessness faster than we can house folks. We have to own that.

"I hold out hope that the new partnership between the county and city of Los Angeles will make a difference and help us more effectively address this crisis. 2023 needs to be a watershed year for us where we turn these trends around." In January, LAHSA officials stated that the one-time federal pandemic assistance programs ending could lead to more housing insecurity and fewer resources for re-housing systems to respond.
