Phoenix has spent millions of dollars in recent years trying to help people experiencing homelessness. One of the city’s biggest projects is a Safe Outdoor Space that provides tents, meals, showers, security and air-conditioned areas for about 300 people who do not have a permanent place to live, The Washington Post reported. Supporters say the site keeps people safer, especially during Arizona’s dangerous summer heat.
