Dr. Coley King, director of homeless health care at Venice Family Clinic, right, visits his client Suzanna, who now has temporary housing and will be moving into an apartment soon. “My usual approach is to give some distance,” said King, who studied the homeless woman’s behavior from afar before approaching. Holz, who introduced King to Suzanna, was the leader of that team, and she’s employed by the People Concern, a full-service provider of housing and mental health services. “She was comfortable talking to us, but she didn’t want any mental health services,” said Holz. “With Suzanna, we had to make it very clear to her that we weren’t going to force anything on her,” said Holz.
