[quote=Anonymous]There needs to be a place that the chronically mentally ill can go for help and care that is not a shelter and not the kind of inhumane warehouse that the mentally ill were committed to 50+ years ago. The city is spending a ton of money on housing vouchers, and that clearly isn't the answer--could that money go instead to some kind of halfway-housing that has social workers, medical care, and other services on site? There seem to a lot of social services, publicly and privately funded, that aren't particularly effective.[/quote]
