San Francisco has passed a new law requiring drug-free housing for chronically homeless individuals in city-owned buildings. The policy, led by District 6 Supervisor Matt Dorsey and supported by Mayor Daniel Lurie, aims to reduce homelessness and promote recovery by providing stable housing without illicit drug use or possession. This initiative is part of the city's broader effort to combat homelessness and behavioral health issues, which has seen a 40% increase in shelter placements and the establishment of over 600 new treatment-focused beds. The policy has been praised by local activists and leaders as a step towards addressing the drug epidemic contributing to homelessness.
