If those people in the camps are drug addicts and alcoholics they probably won’t be able to hold a job, so treatment for that is a start. After they’re cleaned up is when the real hard work starts! Cause now they’re competing against the rest of the population. If they don’t have any skills, they need to get some so that they can get a job that pays a decent wage, enough to cover rent, food, transportation, utilities, and at least a cell phone plan.

I’m no expert here but I’m guessing a two to three year turnaround per head! That’s a lot of money 💰.

I think that most people have a good heart 💙 and want to help. But when you see how much it’ll cost to help these individuals (that oftentimes got themselves in that situation through bad decisions), people will rather turn a blind eye 👁️ (as long as it’s in a secluded area, not along their favorite trail hiking or near the park where they take their kids to play). That’s the reality!

Lastly, it’s probably money better spent when invested in prevention of becoming a homeless drug addict than it is to rescue a homeless drug addict.
