It's nice that the streets are clean, but maybe we'd be doing better if we just gave those people cleaning jobs that they can do plus some support with staying in the job, and accommodation, and medical help if needed.

Sure, but that's not trivial. E.g. in many cases these are people who might be unable/unwilling to work any kind of regular or fixed hours, so making this a regular-employment job would hurt those people.
