Abstract
This study assesses an experimental network intervention program conducted in a single-room-occupancy hotel. The relatively low percentage of successful interventions indicated that such procedures must be used cautiously but may be valuable if attention is paid to the types of problems and their immediacy, client characteristics, client education, and the building of trust.Keywords
