There is no carrot or stick, so the homeless can repeteadly decline service offers without any consequences. Harm Reduction policies such as these and Housing First are demonstrated failures that don’t help the homeless (24 died in Tempe in 2020) and negatively impact quality of life for the non-homeless as well as environmental damage to waterways and wildlife.
