the state, at whatever level of government, should offer services, but those services cannot be forced on to addicts due to their constitutional right to security of the person and the reality is that they don't work. meth and opiate addicts have an almost 100% relapse rate after treatment. you can detox them and get them in housing and almost all of them are back on drugs in a few weeks. it's a revolving door. this is really just directing resources away from other people that need it, and that's noteworthy in a housing crisis.

forcing people to treatment should not only not be enforced but should be aggressively avoided. the resources should only be available on the basis of enthusiastic free will. otherwise, it's a drain on resources with essentially no likelihood of success.
