Evaluation of Dream Keeper's Funding and Services

The article discusses how the homeless children's network received $2.2 million, but their evaluation report focuses on providing mental health services to black individuals instead of placing homeless children in homes. The Dream Keeper organization evaluates themselves and believes they are doing a fantastic job based on feedback from those who receive funding. One grantee compares their funding to receiving a glass of water in the desert and argues for a perpetual infusion of $60 million annually. The context includes an ongoing push for reparations in San Francisco, with recommendations for $5 million lump sum payments to redress historical inequity, despite the state never having had slavery. The housing situation raises questions about potential violations of the Fair Housing Act.
