[QUOTE="Blurt, post: 631741, member: 648"] Agreed. That's a definite risk. Which is why [I]supportive[/I] housing is the way to go. That's one of the pillars of "community supports." The buildings in question need to be staffed, ideally 24/7. An on-site housing support worker engages with tenants in order to help them: -- Maintain a stable tenancy (unit maintenance, rent payment, etc.); -- Connect with local health and social services; -- Develop a sense of community outside "the street circle"; -- Access harm reduction supplies; -- Deal with emergency issues related to mental health and substance use disorders; -- Navigate the legal and health care systems; -- Recover their dignity as human beings. The work is worthwhile and rewarding. Everybody wins. [/QUOTE]
