Yeah, having a distribution of "classes" within a communal housing makes the most sense.
The issue of having a maladapted homeless person within proximity of "normal" people is that they may negatively affect others in meaningful ways. So an intermediary step from the streets to communal housing is necessary to act as a rehabilitation point to filter out the homeless that would actively harm the peace, safety, and security of everyone else. Without that intermediary step, the community will step up and "handle" the situation in a less than desirable manner. "So you are saying the guy that we have had various complaints about multiple times a month just decided to jump off the roof and nobody saw anything?" That sort of dynamic has played out throughout human history.
So a degree of isolation and counseling is necessary and the duration would be highly dependent on the individual's needs.
I agree. In between and also for some time after being given that social housing.
Absolutely, you can't just call them good and send them off into the population. A degree of continued support would be advisable even if they have transitioned into a "normal" state equal to the average person because homelessness has long-term psychological effects that can't be allowed to smoulder.
