The fact that they think the problem could have been solved by a special ticket instead of a normal ticket and a business card shows just how clueless 110 supporters are.
Making treatment optional is the problem, not the methodology of communicating how optional it is.

Personally? I didn’t think it would be effective. But the vast drug use among the homeless keeps them homeless.
Until they get clean, they can’t hold a job. Until they can hold a job, they can’t pay rent.
