- droopyEyelids 3y agoThere are very few shelters that take people who are actively using drugs. That's partially because drug use among the homeless is a proxy for antisocial behavior. It's definitely not a perfect metric, but it's the best that people providing care have to keep their operations running.
- reaperducer 3y agoAre there similar services for people who won't or can't get clean? I have a vague memory that there was a court decision stating that someone cannot be forcibly made un-homeless unless they're a danger to themselves or others. I'm sure there are some IANALs here who can clarify my murky memory.
