Having a roof + support is one of the fundamental parts of treating mental health however.

Can't just shove them in a house and all good, but its a fundamental part of treatment along with social programs. Without stability it's tough to change much in someone's life.

It sounds like what is needed is a holistic solution that provides both accommodation and other support services all in one.

Agree just because a property is vacant it doesn’t make that property suitable for anyone. Does it need ground maintenance. Does it need furniture. Is it in a very high cost of living area. Is it near where homeless people and their associated support groups and family are. Etc
