I notice there is no mention of what happens to the people who use the Mission's services over the years. They choose to not follow the progress of their clients because it would show that they completely fail to get a decent percentage of them cured of their substance abuse and other problems. 

For many of the homeless people I meet, they have no desire to work even though they could. They prefer the free meals (choice of several each day) and hanging out getting drunk in the park to working for a living. Unfortunately, these people ruin it for those who have a desire to change their circumstances as well as for those who are not physically capable of working. Everyone gets lumped together, which is very unfortunate and doesn't work for anyone, housed or not.
