Vices


A vice is defined by dictionary.com as an immoral or evil habit or practice. Alcohol and drugs are among the leading addictions facing the homeless. If a homeless addict receives money, they do not spend money on proper furnishings. Money is spent on fuel to further addictions. Even local homeless agencies will not accept participants that do not pass a drug test. Without insurance, homeless are not able to participate in addictive disorder treatments and recovery programs. Officials in San Francisco have sponsored a program which helps house and counsel homeless addicts. Information on this program can be found on the Drug-Rehabs website.
