"They should go to mandatory rehabilitation." This is our future President @JoeBiden saying this. Today. He's right. Expanded mandated treatment is coming. @chesaboudin @MattHaneySF @LondonBreed @SupStefani @SF_DPH @DOPEproject @sfbos https://twitter.com/Breaking911/status/1301616121859186688 …

So stupid. That never works. The poor people who work in this field are swamped with people who want to get clean. They don’t need their precious time wasted w people who don’t want, never wanted to get clean. Addicts have to be WILLING to do the work. Sadly they need a bottom.

What's our alternative? We are stuck between locking people up and doing nothing. I went to a rehab where 87 of the 90 men were mandated to treatment. I know many were there to beat their sentence. But some of them found recovery along the way.

@MyTwolffamily Are you open to other ideas or just supporting Mental Health Sf and Biden’s plans for mandatory rehab?

I realize there is no one size fits all model to treating homelessness and drug addiction. But lately, there has been a growing movement attacking abstinence based recovery and vice versa. I think there's room for all types of recovery including mandated treatment.

Am all for abstinence. The addicts aren’t too keen on it. If you run a rehab how do you make a buck if the addicts won’t come in the door? After all it’s a business. Mandate I guess.

You can stick someone in prison and they'll find a way to get high so how does supremely costly mandatory treatment benefit anyone other than the poverty mafia and associated politicians?

I'm with you. We hurt way more people than help them imo. But I do believe there is a way to help rehabilitate people who want help but the model is more like a Community First approach in Austin, TX.

That is a good approach. I am all for it. Need to use multiple approaches, including prevention.

Again who are we talking about? The 1 in 100 addicts who’s willing to do the work? Or the 99 who aren’t interesting in anything or anyone but getting high? The one isn’t a problem. They’ll recover in almost any program. They’re willing.
