New research from the Cicero Institute has revealed that registered sex offenders make up a relevant and sizeable subpopulation of the homeless population in Iowa.

THE BOTTOM LINE:
There must be an urgency to develop innovative programs and policies to more assertively address the humanitarian and public safety crisis unfolding on the streets of Iowa’s cities.
