I skimmed article. It's interesting that there is no mention of Assertive Community Treatment Teams (ACTT). Models like this have been around since the late 70s. Lots of states in the US have programs like these.

I've been doing this work myself for the last seven years in North Carolina. I've given plenty of long acting antipsychotic injections in parking lots and under bridges.
