"...
Understanding the reasons why homeless women with serious mental
illness refuse social services, such as housing, as a "meaningful
social signal" rather than a lack of insight should lead service
providers to take a different approach to the way they offer
services."
...
"Not requiring that clients go off to a psychiatrist [to get a
psychiatric diagnosis] is one way of minimizing refusal of services,"
Luhrmann suggested
