San Francisco's $5M Managed Alcohol Program Aims to Improve Homeless Health
May 11, 2024, 02:13 PM
San Francisco has initiated a $5 million Managed Alcohol Program aimed at providing homeless alcoholics with controlled quantities of alcohol. The program, funded by taxpayers, includes housing, meals, activities such as crafts and outings to Giants games, with no expectation of reducing alcohol consumption. Nurses administer 1-2 drinks, 3-4 times daily, offering choices between 1.7 ounces of vodka or liquor, 5 ounces of wine, or 12 ounces of beer. The initiative, designed to improve participants' health, has sparked controversy and criticism for its approach to managing homelessness and addiction.
