Did "society" fail them ? We used to have institutions to help...but circumstances surrounding their rights of self-detemination took precedence, and here we are with civil rights intact and more people on the street because of it.

While closing institutions aimed to promote individual rights, the shift didn’t come with adequate support systems. Many are now left without the help they need. We should focus on providing both civil rights and the necessary resources, like mental health care and housing, to support everyone, including the homeless and the LGBTQ+ community.

I disagree (slightly). Once the system allowed mentally ill people the right to self determination, half-way houses were set up as methods of integrating them back into society.  Consistently they failed to volunteer to remain in a structured and healthy environment. Mentally ill people will more often choose the freedom of the streets.

The deinstitutionalization movement, which began in the 1950s and accelerated after the passage of the Community Mental Health Act in the 60s, aimed to promote individual rights and community integration for people with mental illness. However, while this shift sought to move care from large psychiatric institutions to community-based services, it did not come with sufficient support systems, leading to inadequate resources for those released. Although halfway houses were established to aid in this integration, many individuals chose to remain on the streets, often due to the lack of supportive environments. 

PS. If this is your idea of foreplay, it’s working.

I used to hire a couple who lived in hotels for a while. The region had a housing shortage so finding a new home wasn't easy. They eventually did find housing through a public social program.
