West Hollywood is the trendsetter when it comes to dealing with homelessness, according to Joel John Roberts, CEO of PATH (People Assisting the Homeless), and the editor of LA's Homeless Blog. According to Roberts, it's one of the few cities that allocate homeless funds directly from its general fund. '''....West Hollywood allotted $3 million per year for homeless services, and funded PATH itself to the tune of $348,000, $48,000 of which came from a Community Development Block Grant and $300,000 from the city’s general fund." Where does Santa Monica fall in all of this ranking of cities helping the homeless? [LA Homeless Blog]
