Prescribing Hope: Trapped on the Streets

For homeless people incapacitated by mental illness in Hawaii, years go by and nothing changes. They’re trapped. And their families struggle to get them help, despite a law passed five years ago that was supposed to offer a way out. Allyson Blair goes inside the effort to get these people treated, and shows what happens when they finally receive help.
