This program is operated by Breaking Ground, a nonprofit.

Well can’t expect people to actually be informed. They just need to say “activists and non profits” are to blame so they can go about their day.

Okay? Yes breaking ground takes outlandish salary for their top staff. How is that somehow a gotcha? You think if he took a lower salary this would all be solved?

That link isn’t even about Breaking Ground to begin with.

Yeah they do though. Executive staff there all 400k+. Again doesn’t change anything about the conversation, but they are critiqued often for high salaries.

If they are going to provide housing plus services, their salaries need to be competitive.

Something in between a corporate job at a big landlord company and a hospital management salary.

I agree for the folks doing the direct clinical work. And not even hating on the high salaries for all the executive either. It’s just many folks point to the high pay of some of their staff as problematic. Again in the grand scheme of things I don’t think it’s a big deal at all
