San Francisco opens 24-hour ‘sobering’ tents to help meth-addicted residents

The city of San Francisco approved a plan to open a “sobering center” for methamphetamine-addicted residents to safely come down from their drug-induced psychosis.

Mayor London Breed announced on Thursday that the California city would be putting up tents with 15 beds to house addicted residents in one of San Francisco’s neediest neighborhoods, Tenderloin. The facility will be open 24 hours a day and will offer resources for those who use the center to continue receiving treatment.
