It's hard to say what exactly can even be done. The portion of the homeless population that makes active camps is going to likely be the kind that need more help than we can reasonably give. If we could promise fair care under forced institutionalization, that could help, but it's doubtful we have a system in place where they'd be treated well.
Reasonably give? My dude, we have more than enough money and resources to help all of these people. It's cheaper to house them than it is to police them but since our society is build on cruelty we don't. Not to mention if we can incarcerate them then the private prison sector gets paid.
