Back on the streets of San Francisco, Georgia heads to St. Boniface Church to use the restroom...she must rely on friends or pay people to help her get over curbs or hike up steep streets.
 Georgia Mitchell, a homeless woman, has lived in San Francisco for years. In recent years, a medical problem with her knee has caused her to require a wheelchair. In 2005, when the pain became unbearable she began a long medical journey, got SSI benefits, and a room inside thanks to the Care Not Cash program. In the process the city has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to help this one homeless woman. Brant Ward4/8/05 Photo: Brant Ward
