Baltimore is spending more than $350,000 to put some of the city’s chronically homeless in hotels and serve others in a new shelter, according to The Baltimore Sun.

The new approach is designed to help more of the city’s roughly 3,000 homeless people by removing barriers that keep them on the streets. To read more, click here.
