Sounds like your city needs more health services then.

Again, how does that help a mentally ill person who refuses it?

I’m not really sure what you’re getting at.

I don’t know the specific laws in your country but in mine if someone is having an acute mental crisis they can be given an Involuntary Patient Order which means they have to stay at a hospital.

These laws already exist where I am, I don’t see the connection between accepting they exist and that they are necessary to solve homelessness.
