San Francisco will be one of the inaugural counties to start using CARE court in October. The program could refer mentally ill homeless people to court-ordered treatment but some activists have disability rights concerns, and both critics and proponents of the law wonder if the city will be ready to provide comprehensive treatment. Chronicle reporters Sophia Bollag and Mallory Moench join host Cecilia Lei to talk about the state mandate and how CARE Court will function. | Unlimited Chronicle access: sfchronicle.com/pod Got a tip, comment, question?
