@redsad@ohai.social Introduced nationally in 2008, Finland's strategy upended traditional shelter-based models by treating unconditional housing as a fundamental human right rather than a reward for rehabilitation. Financial Payoff: Studies show the model saves society at least €15,000 per person per year by reducing emergency healthcare, police intervention, and judicial system costs. https://www.homelessworldcup.org/cities-ending-homelessness-global-lessons/finland-can-housing-firist-end-homelessness
