I believe people are better off when they have shelter, food, healthcare, access to healthcare facilities, and so on. In addition, those lodging should be secure so the person's belongings are safe when they go about their day. I'd like people to be able to store and cook food safely as well.

This doesn't really describe jail. Jail is designed to punish people, and all too often, to hold people suspected of crimes. We have rape jokes about jails. Access to healthcare seems to be missing, especially if you have issues with mental health. You really cannot have belongings: For someone homeless, that could mean they don't have belongings later on, even if they were only held for a short time. If you happen to be a homeless person that works (yes, they exist), it also means you probably just lost your job.
