    Just watch any imterview with a shelter advocate they will tell you that there is a percentage of homeless yhat will either refuse shelter or leave soon afterward. The reasons can be mental health related, barrier entry, or a personailty that just doesn’t follow rules like after x:pm it is quiet time.

      Yeah, ‘there’s a percentage’ of any group that won’t accept help. The idea we just don’t do something because some of the people won’t accept help is insane. We’d literally never do anything ever. I was responding to:

      At the end of the day, you could provide every single homeless person with a home and half would willingly go back to the streets.
