Author seems to suggest that housing first won't work. I might have missed it but I don't know why. What do they suggest instead?

- unknown_user_84 3y agoI get the sense that they are suggesting a housing + services approach. My read on why they think Housing First is flawed is that housing was offered and services were withheld. This implies some kind of public counseling service for the newly housed which could have its own set of issues. But in my opinion seems worth trying... if they're going to throw billions at this thing hiring a few qualified therapists couldn't hurt.
- chmod600 3y agoIt seems like the suggestion (by implication) is mandatory treatment for substance abuse and mental health issues.
