The Garrison Plan Is a Massive Expansion of Forced Conservatorship

Gloria Borger: San Diego's new mental health plan is a massive expansion of forced conservatorship. Under the system, judges can force people into treatment and housing; if they don't comply, they can be forced into conservatorships. She says it doesn't provide money for mental health services but directs existing funding to court-mandated programs. Borger: This isn't really about people with mental health - it's about keeping unhoused people where they can't be seen.
