San Francisco is launching a “drunk tank for drug use”: the RESET Center, where people arrested for public intoxication/drug use can sober up indoors with medical supervision instead of tying up ER beds or jail cells. The Board approved a $14.5M pilot contract for a SoMa site at 444 6th St. on a 9–2 vote (Fielder and Chan no).

San Francisco will use $21M in state Proposition 1 bond funding to open 50 new locked behavioral-health beds at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. The state pays for the buildout but SF must still fund staffing and operations.

The city is finally launching a pragmatic sobering center to handle drug-related arrests, combining enforcement with treatment opportunities.
